Exciting things

I was emailed the other day from the chairman of the Lancashire W.I. Federation. If that wasn't exciting enough, she said she had heard how great my needle felt classes were and would I like to do a two day workshop for them next May!

I think I answered the email within 4 seconds with a very big YES. 

Since then we have spoken to sort out the details and now its all booked. Im so happy things are doing in the right direction for me and at a pace that isn't going to make me stressed.

On the other hand something has has been making me stressed is Neil the Sloth! 

Here is an update on him.

He now has his claws which when very well but then I decided I didnt like the colour of his fur so went over the whole body again!

I have made a start to the proportions of his face..... That will be another challenge.

I have until the end of July to complete him so plenty of time yet...

Getting furry

Neil the sloth is making progress. 

Still lots of work to do! And detail detail detail.. My favourite part! 

I had an lovely email this morning from the chairman of the W.I. Federation asking me to do another needle felting class. Im so excited! 

Womens Institute bunny

Last year i had the pleasure of being invited to a local Womens Instiute to show tell them all about needle felting and to show them how to make a christmas bauble.

36 lovely ladies came and made me very welcome and we spent two hours felting away creating the their own decorations. 

Later I got some really good feedback from them and recently was asked to go again to show them something a bit more challenging. This session was only meant to last for an hour and a half but they enjoyed it so much it lasted for three hours! And during that time we drink tea, ate cake and felted furiously!  

I got some lovely feedback again and today one of the ladies who didnt have time to stay and finish her bunny off. Send me this lovely photo to show me she had completed it and how happy she was with the demonstration I gave. 

Here is her bunny

And here is the one i made for them to recreate.

I think she did a really good job, dont you. 

I will post some more photos of the other bunnies soon
