What Happened Next

All the needle-felting and doming mesh and stitching was made up into another chest, upright this time.


No, I can't find the place where you can rotate a picture by degrees on this silly Mac so you will have to put up with it wonky.  A view from the side.  It's a triangular chest so looks a little strange from this angle.

And the inside with it's silk lining.

It was fun to make!

This is a photo of my little tent thing I bought as I had several people ask about it.  It's 50 cms square and came with the lights.  Mind you they are not the greatest of photos as I did take the above rather quickly just to shove them on here as we have a man due to fiddle with the internet aerial any moment and I wanted to just post this quick!!


As I mentioned before the base materials, the prefelt, wool, organza, scrim and yarn came from The Threadstudio as part of the monthly Needlefelting Club.  Great for having all these things arrive in the post colourways already chosen!!!

Don't forget too if you fancy a creative break away you can join Dale in Italy in October this year, just go to this link to find the details. http://www.abruzzoschoolofcreativeart.com/dale-rollerson.php  I am so looking forward to going!!!

John took me to the Craft 4 Crafters Show at Exeter last Thursday.  I didn't have much of a list of things to buy and when I saw things I liked I realised I had the already at home!!  Saved a fair bit of cash but as it's my year of USE that's good.

Have a great week!

Just a Quick Heads Up

Myfanwy Hart has started a group called Create Something Every Day and sometimes, like this weekend, there will be an extra push.  The main link is http://createaday2014.wordpress.com/ and there is also a private Facebook page which you can ask to be a member of, ask any member or me so Myfanwy can approve you in.
There is no limit to where you come from or what you create or in what media.  You can paint a picture, sew a panel, sculpt a figure, design a garden flower bed, bake a cake you just have to try to create something and post about it.

I'm off to see what I can rustle up as the prompts start later this morning and carry on over the weekend.  Join us if you can!

I did manage to experiment with some babywipes, moulding paste, mount board, silk, beads and stitch and make this little casket in the week.



I wanted to see where else I could do other than books with a little structure, I enjoy building things!! It was only an experiment but I did enjoy it so I see some more in my near future.

Have a wonderful weekend!
