He who dies with the most yarn and fabric is, nonetheless, dead.
I've been doing a lot of felting but not many pictures yet except for this needle felted bird, made from a drawing by my son.
We have no light at the moment and my tripod is kaput. Might get a new one today.
Have a look at Humblearts for some nice needle felted Christmas ornaments.
More felted ornaments.
Really good demonstration of needle felting.
Nice pincushions, site link from Molly Chicken.
Interesting site.
Highly desirable felted knitwear from Mary Davis.
Please Santa, a bobble skirt for Juju's polka dot collection!
I know it's expensive Santa, but surely with all your elves to help work those knitting machines, it's no problem.
Pocket pattern coming in the next few days.
That bird is so cute! I did quite a bit of needlefelting over the summer. I actually have a dog around who would love to have some eyes someday : )

Wonderful bird! It's all quite cute, really.

Such a sweet bird, and what a marvelous thing for your son to see a creation of his 'come to life'!

i have been popping in on your bloggy for a while. i love it! anyway, i wondered if you had seen any freeform crochet or knitting? seeing the things that you seem to really love, you will really enjoy it, i think. prudencemapstone.com makes amazing things, and of course jenny dowde, the queen of it. i recently started working with it because i am too cool for patterns. and i am not so good at following them.

Love the bird, will it hang on your tree? I admit that every time I see one of those Indian fabric little purses these days I think, "That would make a good pocket". I just haven't gotten around to it yet!

The bird is sweet, such pretty colours!

The bird is simply charming! Have you plans to make more - for the shop maybe?
Hope all's well, as we've not heard from you in a long time....

Hey JuJu, how's the belly dancing going? I have thought about undertaking it myself, but am concerned about completely and totally making a fool of myself as I am entirely uncoordinated.
