Yes! I have finished it! I think!! What do you think, I’m pleased with it, and it does look a little like nougat, but I wouldn’t eat it, far too hairy! So onto the next thing, I have some pieces to put on cards, I may take a group shot of those, I’ll keep you […]
..the felt that is rather than anything else! I have entered this piece in the whiplash competition on whipup So I have cut it, and now I’m starting to work on it further, beading, and adding in semi-precious rocks, it is starting to come together. Here is the link to the original entry. More soon […]
Well I have felted it, much easier than I thought it would be, though it was an experiment. I think it will be harder to use in a piece with more details in and used in conjunction with other materials like the silk tussah. I think it works well, and I guess how I imagined […]
I’m obviously in the mood for trying stuff out! At the same time I bought the Welsh Mountain Sheep wool tops, I also bought some ‘Sparklethread’, which I think you mainly fuse together through heat. I think it is also a thicker version of Angelina. So I thought I would give it a go and […]
yep, I have made it and this is what it looks like. You can’t appreciate the texture of it though like this so I have a details shot below as well. I added a little bit of silk tussah and hemp fibre as well, to try out, very pleased with it, I will be cutting […]
Yes, you read that right! I have not had a chance yet to photograph the piece of felt I made with the Welsh mountain sheep wool tops yet, it is sitting next to me. I will do so, but then I will probably cut it up, and do ‘stuff’ with it. I think I have […]
..yes, and Welsh ones at that! Today I got some wool tops from Welsh Mountain Sheep, and I have made a piece of felt up this evening with it, waiting for it to dry now, so I will hopefully post a photo tomorrow, I think it could add a reall different texture/direction to what I’m […]
I thought that I would show how one of my pieces of felt develop, from lots of fluffy fibres into a solid piece of felt. This is not so much the process, but how the materials change from being the wool tops to the wet felt to finally the dry finished piece. One of the […]
