Needle Felting Fun


I recently checked out the book, Warm Fuzzies by Betz White from the library. (You can also buy it at Amazon). It makes needle felting look so much easier! She gives lots of very helpful tips to make your projects turn out great and directions are easy to read. I'm so excited to try this craft again!
You can make pretty things for your home or to wear. I haven't read this book but I like the cover.
Aren't these little animals adorable? There are a few more felting ideas on the turkey feathers blog. Let me know if you try it.

Summer Skirt

I did some sewing and am really loving this VERY comfortable skirt. I found the material at Hancock's. These pictures don't show it very well but there are several inverted box pleats, front and back. I started this with a pattern, but then didn't like how it was going, so, I just did it my own way. I love it when something turns out, don't you?! The wind was blowing so I'm trying to hold down the skirt- it really has an even hem line!

Bracelets



I had a few outfits that needed some bracelets to match. Here they are. One of the beading books I read recently suggested using silk thread because the author felt it draped better. I tried it and I agree. The thread should be found near the beads in your local craft store.
