work in progress ...

This is one of my needle felted creatures in progress ... I tend to have several on the go at one time and switch between them.

More needle felted 'thingy' s to come soon ...

and now for something completely different ...

One of my recent creations ...

the post has arrived ...

And Long Tall Sally has a good look at herself and some old friends in print ;-)



Thankyou Gretel for a lovely calendar - read more about them on Gretel's blog.

If you want one of these calendars - they're available here ...

introducing ...

I decided to make the most of the sunshine at lunchtime today to take some photos of some of my needle felted creations - to introduce them to the world ....









When I get things sorted out these creations will be for sale online. In the meantime ... if anyone is interested in adopting one of them before then, please just drop me an email. I will also take custom orders, so if there's anything you fancy please email me to discuss ...

Still here ...

Just wanted to post a quick update to let any one who pops by know that I am still around.

Things are fairly busy on the freelance design front, so that is keeping me very busy during most weekends and some evenings.

I've also started exploring needle felting in the little spare time that I have. Initially I thought I might be able to do some needle felting on my long daily commute (by bus), but after experiencing how sharp the needles are I've decided that's not a good idea.

Anyway - I'm still here and I'll be back soon with photos of my needle felted creations ... I will be offering them for sale on Etsy, so I guess I will have to unveil them soon ;)

welcome Long Tall Sally

This week we had someone new come to stay with us - introducing Long Tall Sally ...





She was made by the very talented Gretel, visit her blog Middle of Nowhere or visit her etsy shop - Red Flannel Elephant Designs.

Gretel - Thank you so much for making Sally, she is much loved here with us and I promise she will be well looked after. Thanks too for the lovely cards you sent with Sally X

a quick hello!

Just a quick hello - I've got a hectic weekend ahead of me - loads to do ... I really want to sit down and spend some time posting on here, but there just always seems to be something else screaming for my attention.

I'm doing some "crafty" type things at the moment, my first project involves some fuzzy wool and a pair of knitting needles, which I will be progressing to the next stage this evening. Then I've got all sorts planned ... felting ... needle felting ... knitting ... sewing ... all sorts ...

More will be revealed soon and hopefully I will be able to launch my etsy.com shop with a few items in a couple of weeks or so ... I'll keep you posted!

does anyone actually read my blog anymore?
wouldn't blame anyone if they gave up popping by as I've been so bad at posting ... ;)
