Nuno Felts this week...

Close up of nuno on chiffon.




The entire scarf. It was dyed by Char Epley, then I did the felting on it. We both like it.

It's been a busy week, cool cloudy days are most productive for me. Time seem to move slower somehow and I feel like I get more accomplished. The heat is due to return today. Got to get a lot done before we have our Sabbath group here tomorrow. I am looking forward to their arrival and our time together.
I wish you all God's Peace and Good Sabbath.

Finally, Hats!

Cloudy, rainy days...how I love them! This has been our weather lately, and I've enjoyed it completely! Most everyone else I know, not so much.

Creative Felt Gathering has announced a special guest teacher from far, far away coming to the event this year. She's not told us yet who it will be, but I am thinking it will be great. This is a wonderful event. Surprises make it even better! Her is the information in case you've missed it. Come to this if you possibly can. It's amazing! The instructors and participants are amazing as well. It is just super to be there! Elis Vermeulen , Chad Hagen, and Pam MacGregor will be there...plus a surprise guest teacher. I'm getting anxious for Sept. to arrive!

I've been making a lot of nuno lately, but decided I needed to build up my hat stock a bit. Finally, hats! The show season is upon me and I've got a lot of stock to get made. I think there are a lot of long nights in my near future.
Got to get rolling....felters, you know what I mean!
Shalom and may Peace be all around you,
Suzanne
