Back to earth

Earth colours have been used in this piece of felt. It was inspired by some gorgeous wool which was shared at the felt group , but when I'd made it I couldn't help being reminded of an awful swirly 80s carpet in a friend's house a long time ago.
However, once the stitches were added (and I must remark how much I enjoyed this part) I think the carpet memory faded.
I hope it gives a foresty feeling. Leafy foresty earthy....

Carrots and Peas

I have been so enthralled by these colours lately that I get excited when I see ads for frozen veg on the tv. Or people with red hair sitting in green armchairs.

In the few moments I have managed to prise myself away from the screen I have been making small embroideries for brooches



and book covers

In my usual way and with the usual materials.
Nothing new there then.
But I have discovered the 'foliage' setting on my camera.

UPDATE: Exciting news. I just sold the two of the brooches on Etsy to a lovely lady in USA!
