It's all good

New teapot....



needs a new tea cosy! Well, how many cosies can a teapot wear?



And here I go using up some vintage ric-rac!



A trip to the Cloth Shop supplied me with loads of inspiration to get the ball rolling, so much so that I made these three in as many days. Two to gift, one to keep, I'm thinking. Here we are, modelling near the tree to get into the spirit.




Carrying on with the same colourful note, miss M was inspired by a picture she saw on the internet of felted acorns. Our big oak tree was very generous this year with its seeds, dropping many acorns in doubles and triples, a bonus for the artist. Marianna set about collecting them and choosing her rovings. Here are the little gems newly created by miss M, a wee gift of handmade needle-felted goodness.
