I hope to sell LOTS at Open Studios next May so am getting into my stride well ahead of myself. Also, as I make each one I am learning what works and what doesn't, and have some ideas for different designs.Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385150635938870512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917429720940688674.post-28598766156389836622013-12-10T14:25:46.669+00:002013-12-10T14:25:46.669+00:00I can see those bangles becoming the latest 'm...I can see those bangles becoming the latest 'must have' amongst young girls... are you going to sell them, or the pincushions?Edwinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03439221693794136665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917429720940688674.post-85246766335315985182013-12-08T23:24:31.445+00:002013-12-08T23:24:31.445+00:00Thanks Jane, I'm enjoying the colour very much...Thanks Jane, I'm enjoying the colour very much.Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385150635938870512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917429720940688674.post-66478599594991922232013-12-08T20:28:20.852+00:002013-12-08T20:28:20.852+00:00Lovely colourful pictures!Lovely colourful pictures!Indigo Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18045423692916533428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917429720940688674.post-79626981844679439002013-12-07T21:59:09.798+00:002013-12-07T21:59:09.798+00:00Hello Ada!

And some chaps just aren't cut out for DIY - my mister is great at it but neither of our sons have the repair gene! And you know, folk art and felt is very forgiving, I am not an Embroiderer by any means but I do love what I'm doing at the moment.

Your farm house quilt is exquisite as usual and it just makes me want to stitch seeing those pretty photos of all your hard work. Take care and I am really pleased you survived the storm with no damage xxx PennyPennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660940774894144976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917429720940688674.post-42686268804131115142013-12-07T12:11:49.156+00:002013-12-07T12:11:49.156+00:00Hi Dc, I have 'wet-felted' but it is such ...Hi Dc, I have 'wet-felted' but it is such a messy, laborious job I buy the wool felt or pieces of tweed (my next bangle attempt!). i LOVE the wonderful effects you get with hand-dyed wet felting but I just can't be getting into all that, not these days. D'you know I was looking a t some haberdashery last night (get a life Lynne!!) and saw one of those little winders - under £2 if it is the same one you have. I think I shall get one now that I'm reslly into using all these skeins. (Some I've had for years and years.Others from Harrogate or online.) I enjoy all kinds of applique but for simplicity and enjoyment working with wool / felt can't be beat.Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385150635938870512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917429720940688674.post-72596524087079512092013-12-07T12:07:43.559+00:002013-12-07T12:07:43.559+00:00Not sure where you are, Jay.

We live about a mile in from the shore of the Wash but the water would have to come right up the marsh to reach us and I don't think it has ever happened. (Touching wood etc!) Such sad news about folks who have lost homes and belongings.Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385150635938870512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917429720940688674.post-15429998765648767112013-12-07T11:49:15.055+00:002013-12-07T11:49:15.055+00:00I love the bowl of bits at the top, rather like a ...I love the bowl of bits at the top, rather like a bowlful of liquorice allsorts. Do you make the felt for your things or get it in? DB invested (not much) in a little thread winder contraption for putting his threads onto cards.

It's ok if you are very very careful as you unwind a length, but it soon gets in a bit of tangle. So I must make an effort, as I unwrap each new skein to do it there and then. And you are right, they look quite nice on the cards. Oh dear, I am going to need a new ORGANISER!!! (OR TWO....)
