So,
what do you when you have 100 and 1 things to do?
Do you start on your list....?
Do you finish what you have left half done
on the dining-room table/desk/summerhouse/kitchen?
Do you finish tidying up?
Nope - don't be silly!
You rediscover lost things - like a bag of fleece tops and a felting needle
and you sit down with a large mug of tea and make....
First a toadstool
then swiftly followed by
a red haired fairy in your favourite colours - well,
that is what I would do,
if I were you!
Then find you have made a fairy with attitude
and she turns her back on you!
Nice one :)
Have you ever suddenly been taken by the magic
and created something out of the blue?
Oh so cute!!! The hair looks familiar? Sometimes I'd love to drop everything & have a go at something new or forgotten, but seem to prioritise housework, meals, husband, etc. first. Maybe I should step back occasionally now that we are oldies & just do. Now I know you are busy with TAM, but that sounds like a lovely little distraction. Have a great weekend & take care.
ReplyDeleteLove the felting. Yes......... started tidying and sorting scraps of fabric to give away to someone who want to do some english paper piecing, and I found my templates started an english paper piecing quilt instead...... My young friend got some scraps of fabric too.

I've tried needle felting but it was not a success; need to have another go. At the moment I cannot drop what I am doing/have to do/must do but I hope soon my life will return to 'normality'!!! I like what you've made; the hair colour is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThey look lovely, had a phase of trying all different crafts, so had a go at felting did enjoy it at the time. In Spring I was lucky enough to get my own (junk)craft room, I got into Junk Journals and love it.
