Happy New Year! & Resolutions!

Over Christmas I was asked if I would be having any New Years resolutions, to which I replied.."have you got an A4 sheet of paper handy!" Okay, so this is a little unrealistic, but if I start small then hopefully some of the rest will follow. So with this in mind…

1. Take more photos..
2. Remember to download them from the card & not keep filling the card up….
3. Use said photos to keep up to date with blog!

This is just the tip of a very large resolution iceberg, all pretty much with a similar solution….sort out the beginning and then the middle and end will follow.

So here goes…..Day 1 of a New Year…..

Some time ago I was commissioned to make a pair of framed dandelion pictures (wet felted) like this one….






I was working on this in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
When you tell people that you start with some wool fibres which you layer up & then add lots of soapy water etc etc, the uneniciated tend to look a little baffled!
So here is one I was working on earlier… in it's 'raw' state







This is in the 'laying out' stage, just wool fibres (Marino & silk in this case) before it starts to get a bit messy and my kitchen turns into something that resembles a Chinese laundry!

Day 2 tomorrow!!
