Wool Applique Flower in a Circle

I wanted to work on something by hand besides knitting, so I decided on doing a wool applique with embroidery. I found some inspiration on Pinterest and then designed my own piece. I am not sure what I will do with this, perhaps a large pincushion or a mug rug? I enjoyed making this and it turned out better than I expected too. The yellow background is a woven wool material, the blue and red flower petals are actually cotton flannel that looks like wool, the red ring around the center and the green circles are wool felt.

Will this turn into a pincushion or a mug rug? Check back and see what I end up doing to finish this piece.

The flower petals of blue and red are cotton flannel that looks like wool.

The green circles and the red ring around the center is felted wool. The yellow background is a woven wool fabric.
