Finding New things



Hi well here I am again. Meant to get here in Nov, but time just gets away.
at the moment I am gearing up for Xmas and have been putting up decorations and making some, so have been very busy.
I want to show you something I made for our last for the year, doll sewing workshop.
Not really doing dolls so much now, but a lot of other nice things.
The first pic here is of my lovely flowers I was given recently when I went to an Afternoon for a good cause. I love flowers and this pic now resides on my desktop. Think somewhere I have an even better one of them. However the next pic you see is of a Xmas deco I made for the last day of our sewing group.
Made 8 of them and am about to make more.
I will put photos and directions in here as soon as I can, but now I am off to finish off some Angels I am making for my Xmas display with lights. Just wait til I get back here very soon.

Life is a play, played out by you,
it is what ever you make it,
whether it be a
Comedy
or a Tragedy,
or even a Romantic interlude.


Just so it is what you want it to be.

Think on it and fly with you own reality.

love

to all

Finding New Things


Hello Again,
Felting.
Yes my friends and I have taken a liking to Felting of late.
We have done it before, and once did a class with Jenny Romano, where we made Felt Bags and animals, so it is not that new to us.
I recently went to a Spinners and Weavers Retreat,but only for the day. It was for 3 days, but more for spinners and weavers. you could watch or join in what was going on.
We watched felt flowers being don, and were going to join in, in the avo, but got sidetracted with so much going on.
We also watched a wool dyeing process and was fascinated enough to buy some neutral hanks to dye.
Also bought some already dyed wool from which I have done some work.
So here goes to show you all the pics from that outing.
The first pic on left is the Felt flowers we saw being made. Not my work,but so morish I have always wanted to try this.
So the lower pic is the Felt flower I made from the wool I bought. It does have 3 different colour layers. The pic on the right at the top is the hank of dyed wool I bought. My pics always seem to move around so hope you can see what I mean.
Also want to show you the blank wool for dyeing and maybe find the bag we once did with Jenny Romano.
So hold tight I'll try to come back today.
Oh Yeah youy say.
Well I will try.
Love and peace to everyone.
On another beautiful day in paradise.
Where I live.'
I'll fly away and be back soon.
