I haven't been around as much as I would like recently. Not even on Facebook, my little Etsy shop or Twitter. I'm so busy with the day job as there are people on holiday and people leaving that I've been pretty much working there none stop. I always think to myself I'll do a bit when I get in but i don't get in until gone 7 then I have to make tea and eat it then all of a sudden it's almost 10 and time for bed :-P
Well anyway enough of my moaning. I have decided to teach myself felting. It all started with a kit I got from a craft fair last year. the girl selling them was really lovely and we got chatting. She made the most amazing felted and crochet pieces including a giant stags head you can put on your wall at Christmas. I was fascinated and bought the kit. I never opened it though, sometimes I would think to myself oh I really need to open that kit but I never did. In the meantime I have been finding other great felters and their amazing creations. Some of them really are beautiful.
Finally I opened the kit!!! It was a rainy day and I was quite bored and tired and I just thought now is the time. i wish I had done it sooner, it's amazing AMAZING!! I find it quite relaxing to stab a piece of finer million sod times with a little needle....... :-P
And last but not least here is a canvas bag design I have been working on! I can't decide if it needs more hearts or maybe some buttons between the hearts? It's quite a big bag and I feel like these little hearts might get a bit lost on there! What do you all think?
Well that's it for now, take care everyone :-)
