STILL WORKING SMALL

I can't get over how much fun I'm having working through the stack of resist dyed felted wool pieces I made in a Chad Hagan workshop....

 This one is a bit larger than the majority of pieces we dyed.....measuring 12' x 8" (rather than 6" x 7").  I forgot to take a BEFORE photo....cause I was so anxious to get started....but happily I remembered to pull the camera out before stitching was too far along.


Here's what it looked like at the end of the evening....click on the photo for a closer look.  Sure.....there's not much to see yet.....truly, the stitching didn't take that long, but the thread color and stitch style decisions did.  


All for now....MUST get my walking shoes on as 'the dog' and 'the husband' are both whining at the door.  It's unusually hot here in the Blue Ridge Mountains....so while the temperatures are still down from overnight.....the 90 minute daily 'forced march' must go on.

Colors and stitching are perfect! So nice to see someone actually work with the felted pieces!
Our walks are early, early a.m. and late, late p.m.! It's higher temps here than in Ocala, Fl! go figure!
