Felting Friends & Flies

Sue, Kathy and I spent the day felting. Kathy made the two flowers and the vessel is mine. Sue makes amazing hats. The process is magical. Also, Sue's husband ties flies, which you can see in the last photo. What a creative family.

The back of the flower is wonderfully graphic.

Michelle Wedding Shower

I choose fabrics to go with her every day dish pattern that she picked out from Crate & Barrell. The plate has bits of purple/mauve in the glaze.

Today is my niece Michelle's wedding shower. I made napkins and placemats to go with her dishes.

Dog for baby Sal

Finished the body on this happy dog. I decided to go with symmetry on this one. His feet are smaller that previous ones. My new digital camera (Sony) really over saturates the color in this photo. This is a gift for my dear friends the Travis family's new grandchild born last month, Salvatore Joseph Barone.

Two new dog heads

Happy day today, did some sewing and the sun is out. I have more of the fabrics I used for my first 3 dogs, one I gave away to Jeffy's new baby daughter and the other two I created kits for my sister Kathy and my niece Britta. Along with the finished heads the kits include all the fabrics and materials to make a finished yo yo dog. These two will be used as baby gifts. Now I can get working on the yo yo's to make up the bodies.
