Further to the Silk and Wool Thing

Quite a lot of brooches

Details of a couple with pearl buttons
And this is what happens when it snows bubble-wrap all over the workshop.. Phew! Just in time, we were almost out...

Mid Winter

And a Merry Solstice to all... And, pray well, for a better year next, please..
Meanwhile, by the Baptist Church, a perfectly Christmassy colour-splash...

Day Six, Back to Normal

Sorted about 10,000 silk scraps, box of wool, made a couple or twelve books,.
 Christmas lunch tomorrow, so this is it.. Thanks for reading...

Day five, chaos, confusion, and silk books

Hello out there.. Thanks all for reading this, as I know there have been lots of you looking, I'm soooo happy
Anyway, today was a bit messy.. Fabric all over the floor, odd visitors from all over the place, including my favourite doggy friend and her humans.  I made mostly little books, here are a few in silk

And wool

And finished a few odds and ends, including this mega-shopping bag which has been hanging around forever

(Oakshott fabrics and one delicious dark batik) - I started this for me as a possible computer-bag, maybe it will stay mine..
And there was humming-of-microwaves again, and Terri made more nice woolly pieces (I hope to get some images of these tomorrow)
A tweedy pincushion bag

And here's a brooch in mustard wool and cotton threads

and an accidental selfie - the camera is playing again..

More tomorrow....

Day Four, assorted finishes

 
Woolly books, tote bag, postcards, silk point purses..
Some other things coming along...

Week of Silk and Wool - Day Three

Much humming-of-the-microwave today, as Terri was dyeing lumps of blanket for her Big Curtain
My slightly-random patchwork blocks came out just cosy, and the squares too..
And I made some little books with silk or tweedy covers - I have a lot of these, they will be for sale later this week on this page

Week of Silk and Wool (and visitors) - day two

Much sorting of the Big Silk Box today, and a lot of semi-finished brooches (more images later), plus a book which I forgot to photograph
And woolly blocks and silk crumbs...

Week of Silk and Wool, day one (silk)

Start with a clean workspace...


Add fabrics, Vilene, iron and board

Make a big mess...

...some experimental blocks...

...and brooches...
More tomorrow

Much Too Good...

To my pussycat...
Funnily enough, she then decided to sleep on my slippers

On the other hand, this begonia is almost too perfect...

Roadkill-Impressed Bread and Frosted Leaves

Ah, winterishness..
