Squirrel


Hi ,today I would like to share with you one off my first attempts at a 3D project, I made this before Christmas it has no wire frame just solid wool ,I thought working with a frame would be difficult,but for Christmas I was bought a kit with wire and have since made a Sheldon sheep from The World of Wool.

New Year, New hobby

 Hello, welcome to anyone who has stumbled across my new blog. In this blog I would like to share with you some of my favourite things to do ,every year I like to try a new craft ,last year was needle felting and I have become a bit obsessed, I am also an avid reader and always have a couple of books on the go,at the moment I have just finished Christmas Cakes & Mistletoe Nights  by Carole Matthews, and am halfway through my favourite book of all time  Rosamunde Pilcher  Winter Solstice, I must have read this book at least 6 or 7 Times ,Rosamunde Pilcher is one of my favourite aurthers. 

But back to this year's new hobby and I am going to have a go at quilting, I am planning out a memory quilt and getting together some material, I am not so good at being very precise so it may be more of a crazy quilt with not a lot of measuring but will keep you posted.

Back to the needle felting I started with a kit my daughter Natalie bought me for Christmas last year it was to do a picture with fields and sheep,and I loved it I then scaled it down and made some greeting cards ,and here is a note book cover I did ,but I am really getting into 3D animals, and I hope to have a go at wet felting at some point.

Well I hope this is a good start to a new year of craft and chat and I will be back soon.
