Poppies in full bloom

I think I am done for the night. The baby tears plant that I had set this on to take the photo from yesterday inspired me to add a scalopped background and make tiny little holes in the edge. I think it finished the piece nicely.

I love Poppies!

This is one of the latest projects i have been working on this summer. I got a wonderful card full of poppy seeds and I thought this will be a good thank-you to send for such a thoughtful gesture. I am not sure how to finish it thought of putting another colour around the base, thought it might add a Little dimension to the background. We will see. I plan on finishing it tonight and will keep you posted on my progress

I apologise for the lack of posting this summer. We have been enjoying the summer savoring the end of the summer with our daughter,Paige. She is growing up too fast. Paige has started her last year of high school and next summer she will be off to college. I am starting to miss her already so I drop everything to pack as much into the little time we have left. She is such a joy to have around.

Night sky ~ WIP

This is another little felt sky I am working on. I need to make more faces that will work better with the small scale of these, not so thick and round.


Here is what it looks like without the face. When I finished the circle I embellished some fabric into the felt then added beads...you can never add too many beads. I thought your would like to see the work in progress.

Sunny night

This is starting to remind me of a print given to me by my aunt years ago, Starry Night by Van Gogh. I found it odd that I made a piece that was day and night at the same time. Seems a little fitting for me I do wake up at night when the stars come out. It seems so easy to get things done when everyone is asleep or maybe I am in the wrong time zone. I am not sure if she is done but I thought I would share my progress.

It Felt like a Sunny Day

It Felt like a Sunny Day... but then it started to rain again here in Florida so felting will have to brighten up the day. This is the latest thing that I am working on. I embellished her a little last night, beads in a swoosh across the blue part and a little green sparkly thread is holding the front and back together. I am thinking about adding more embellishments to her but thought I liked her simple and not too over the top to show the felting and color blending but I do get addicted to beading and such. As always I would love your input, what do you think?

Mojo Found!

Hi every one I am back. I lost my Mojo, and it took me longer to find it than I had hoped. Hope not too many blog friends have been lost, but I am here and this is what I am up to now. I finally after lusting over the Baby Lock embellisher, broke down and made the big purchase. I have been in a haze of fiber dust ever since and today this little bird came about. I am not sure if I will add beads or leave it as is. We will see what the fairies decide over night.


Here is another bird that just flew in. This afternoon is a flutter with felt. I wonder if I will have a flock in my house by tomorrow. I put this little guy up on Etsy. He wants to fly away.

Check back some time tomorrow, a little birdie told me a giveaway is in order for those of you who have stopped in
