Felting!


Organised by Greta, Teresa and I did the most wonderful felting workshop with Elizabeth Armstrong (elizabeth-armstrong.blogspot.com) today. I can't believe the fantastic, finished pieces we all made. Elizabeth is a very talented, experienced felter and inspirational artist and her workshop was so organised and full of her beautiful pieces. She is in the process of publishing a felting book which I can't wait to get my hands on!

Something Old, New, Borrowed and BLUE!


With the renovations and the cleaning out of stuff accumulated over the 26 years we have lived here, my wedding dress was "re-discovered". Sarah is the only one who can fit into it now and was eager to try it on. It is still in perfect condition but I didn't want her to smile because she had just finished a "pushpop" lolly and her mouth was all blue!

Christmas Cards 2010

A bit late with the blogging but at least I posted all my Christmas cards out on time this year! I made three different ones. I forgot to take a pic of the first lot and had to change design only when I ran out of supplies. The red and white ones were for my Crafty Mum friends, to surprise them as they had helped with the first lot (the silver "Merry Christmas" is a bosskutt die which took a lot of time to cut/remove from negative). They did a great job...
