Today has been an excellent day for seeing several of the book projects through from start to finish. Firstly I tackled a highly textured nuno felt scarf, then a 50% silk 50% merino scarf/neckpiece (need to think of a new name for this!), next I felted a really striking but simple raw silk and merino lampshade and finally by combining the waste left over from this project with some raffia and a spare Bodum coffee container I made the easiest felt candle holder imagineable! Now I am just going to spend a few minutes looking up something on the computer (no, it is not fixed yet, more work remotely tonight hopefully) and then back to get on with my next item. I think it must be the fact that we put our clocks forward one hour last Sunday because I am really motoring along with the felting these last few days although unfortunately I need to do some paperwork urgently, ugh. I also need to sort out a materials lists for my US workshops (do you know how EXCITED I am getting about these?????) and I also need to update everyone about Horst’s workshop here as well! No electricity here tomorrow for the whole day so guess it’s felting again for me!!!
You really are a busy bee Nicola:)) ….Now don’t forget to take a deeeeeeep breath of Irish air
Good morning Nicola,
Whew…this post makes me tired just thinking of all that you’re doing/creating. Hope you know how happy we are that you’re coming back to the U.S. – Can’t wait to have you back in Michigan (and of course to see the new book which I’m so looking forward to).
Hugs,
Dawn
