Apologies for my absence last week, I was snowed under. More about that later. You're here to see my workdesk aren't you. Here you go then...
Among all the clobber on the desk you can see my nice pieces of wet felting from a few weeks ago and some linen with little needlefelted landscapes.
I've been slowly working my way through the pieces of wet felting to create new designs. I'm guilty of being a bit hooked on the same designs, so for the last fortnight I've been trying out a few new ideas. Still within my comfort zone of fields, gardens and hedgerows but a bit different. Whadda ya think?
Delphinium
Bluebells and daisies
This said, I've also had to step up production of my existing sheepy and floral designs by popular demand. My work is now in four shops and galleries and three of these contacted me last week to say my work was going...going...gone and could they have some more?! Chuffed to bits, I started dumfing away and this was how I spent most of last week. Here's the collection I pulled together...
After all the hard work, Ben and I had a well-earned day off to see my friend and her lambs at the farm in mid Wales which was the original inspiration for my sheepy landscapes. We had a fab day!
That's all for this week, thanks for reading. I hope to stop by a few desks later. If you're visiting here for the first time, hop on over to Julia's Stamping Ground to meet lots of other lovely artists and crafters!
Happy crafting

Ohhh I'm not surprised your work is in such demand, it's truly beautiful. I have fiddled with needle felting in the past but keep meaning to have a go properly. You have really inspired me with these works of art.

Hi Tilly, how wonderful that your work is selling so well, but it is truly beautiful, so I'm not surprised. I think it's good that you stick to producing what you love, that will always show through in what you do. Although there can be something to be said for stepping outside your comfort zone, if it doesn't make you happy, then why bother? Have a great week, hugs, Shaz #9 xx
