Hello folks! Welcome to my regular blog about my textile art, linking up with What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday, a weekly artists' showcase. I didn't post last week as we'd just got back from a mini break in Aberystwyth. More about that later. Here's my work desk this morning...
More needle felted and embroidered sheep brooches on the go this week. They've been popular online and I have been asked you stock a few shops so I'm increasing the size of my flock!
I'm also working on some more background pieces to use in a series of needle felting demonstrations I'll be doing at Acton Scott Working Farm in the next few weeks. You might remember the farm from a BBC series 'Victorian Farm' a few years ago. More about that another week.
So, to our mini break in Aberystwyth. We had a lovely little family break and I managed to find some inspiration while walking along the coastline. Look at the colours in these pebbles...
Here's are some wild flowers I found...
Here's how I turned my wild flower findings into a needle felted and embroidered brooch...
Finally, here are a few shots of my happy little man on his hols...
That's all for today folks, thanks for stopping by. Happy crafting Max x
