Felt & Fabrics
I made this using some of the things I bought from Harrogate this year and some that I bought last year. I used all sorts of fibres and materials including silk rods, scrim, hessian, felt, mulberry bark, throwsters waste and silk cocoons, as well as buttons, sequins, hat pins, beads and mount board.
I arranged my layout onto the hessian and machine sewed the pieces in place. The sequins and buttons were hand sewn afterwards and the beads added to the pins.
I wanted to use some bright colours for a change, I think I managed it!!!!

- Hi I'm Sam, 41, birthday in October - Any piece of art greatfully rec'd - Thanks. OH, Martin, been together 20 years and still no plans to get married!!! We love spending time with our pupster, especially when the weather is dry and we get to take him to the woods. I love any sort of crafting and would say that I am adventurous with new materials. We love going skiing in any winter resort, but mainly the States or Canada, they have better snow!! We lost our first beardie, Max, August 2006 at a ripe old age of 14 and 1/4. Since then Frazzie has come along, he is now 4 years and 9 months old and is still a little Bugger, Bugger!!! Unfortunately in December 2008 we lost Alfie at 14 months old after only having a short time of 7 weeks loving and caring for him. He found a good buddie in Fraz and loved him to bits.
