For the love of felting!



















Wow it seems like an age since I blogged but since then lots of stuff has happened. Some of it good and some bad.

At the beginning of May I crunched my knee at indoor netball. I jumped up to catch the ball and landed rolling my ankle and popping my knee out at a terrible angle. It made a horrible crunching noise which resulted in a whole leg brace, crutches and codeine.

Anyway, the long story short is that I had a week off school and found felting. I hade bought some raw wool last year but never really did anything with it as it all seemed a bit hard at the time. But with my knee-assisted-incarceration I had time to kill when the television bored me to tears and I was waiting for my friend to deliver some books to read.

I have loaded some of the pics of my experimentations, some of which will be going onto Etsy this month. Do feel free to pop by (http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5544405). My favourite one is the red/burnt orange flower that looks like a cartoon flower that Wilma Flinstone would love!
