a new piece of felt, and a name that I’m not sure about! I’m trying out ideas, but I want to this work as a whole piece, rather than end up turned into other things like more recent pieces of felt I have made. As I said yesterday I’m now planning for what I need […]
No photos today, pretty dull here, weather wise of course! The kids are back at school, and so now I have to begin to think about all the other things, including Hampshire Artists 2007. An e-mail arrived yesterday about it, so I’ve been thinking about that and I think we shall do it, even though […]
A proper post at last! I have been unable to make any felt over Christmas, so I have been working on the pieces I made prior to the festive period, seen here. I worked on the second and third pieces, the third became the Christmas present for my parents in law, and I mainly beaded […]
Good grief, I have been having a nightmare with making new felt for corsages. I have had a couple of requests, all for the pink ones I made a while ago. Now at that point I was using a different wool roving, not sure where from, but it felted really nicely, with no bother! Well […]
This past weekend I worked on 3 new pieces of felt. I laid them all up at the same time, felted the first and then waited another 24 hours before I did the last two. Working like this I was able to get a feeling of how some of the new materials I have been […]
This is taking an age, I’m trying to tidy and organise our spare room/office/workroom and I cannot believe how long it takes to put together Ikea cupboards! Anyway in the process of tidying I have found some more of the things I bought while on holiday in Cornwall. On the Tuesday we were away we […]
not as good felted, as before I felted it 🙁 It has lost the depth it had… what do you think?
no photos as yet, they are both drying in the airing cupboard, but just to let you know I have made two new pieces, which are not to be cut up, but I will be using a pieces to frame. So they’d better work out ok!!!
yep, here they all are in their glory 🙂 I think there are 14 in total, lets hope they go. I would like to say that if anyone is interested in any of them, please leave a comment or mail me, or you could go to the more on the Flickr page of this and […]
after I went to the one day thingy for Wingham Wool Work I had loads of new fibre to play with, so last week, I think, I made a new piece of felt. I used merino as the base, and worked in Bluefaced Leicester Tops, and scoured Kids Mohair and finally small wool neeps. I […]
