My Activities

I am a textile artist living in Somerset, South West England. I love everything to do with fabric, threads, yarn and mixed media. I'm a member of the newly formed TextileSet, a group of enthusiastic stitchers from Dorset & Somerset, the online group Near & Far, West Country Embroiderers and Quirky Quilters.
I love the county of Somerset and enjoy walking my dog, Indie. I travel with her around England and France at every opportunity and we both have fun in our 'cottage garden'

Finish for Friday Two

FELTED WITH THE EMBELLISHING MACHINE

A couple of posts ago I wrote about some felting wool which I'd found at a budget supermarket - such a reasonable price, 4 x 50 gram balls for £2.99!

Anyway, this is the first piece, hand stitched and made into a book cover.

Below is a photo of the other colours and now I have to decide what to make from the finished pieces.......so one unfinished project completed but three more now in the queue!!

    Wow you have certainly created a masterpiece this time, just love how the colours have blended just like a water colour painting and the hand stitching was a great idea and really enhances the whole piece.

    A lovely piece of work - I love those soft natural stone colours.
