On My Workspace

I've been busy busy busy stocking my shop for the upcoming holidays!  Here are some things I'm working on.

autumn flower brooch
A new wool brooch.

A pretty little headband that would be perfect for a bride or her bridesmaids.

Some little snowmen.  Their hats are in a pan of boiling water, fulling away:)

Some owls.  Is he cute or what?  Every time I look at him, I just want to squeal!  I've named him Edmund.  That is his as-yet-unformed brother in the background.

This will be a linen necklace.

wips_5
A pretty silk necklace.

Another necklace.  This is a different silk, sort of tweedy.

wonky bowls
I'm felting some bowls.  They are wonky, I know, but wonky with a purpose I promise;)  While crocheting, I made very random increases and decreases, going for a more sculptural effect.  I also have a bowl in the kitchen boiling right now.  I really should go check on that.  Burnt wool is not a pleasant thing, I would imagine.  Anyway, I'm adding some unexpected decorative elements to the bowls.

And of course I have to make a turkey!  As I was working on these crochet corals, I couldn't help thinking they would make great turkey feathers!  So yeah I'm doing a mini version.

I'd better go check on that boiling wool before I have a mess on my hands (and stove).  See you Friday!

  1. Oh my goodness, Bobbi, THAT OWL! He's divine! I normally am really not into the owl trend going around right now, but that little snowy owl is just perfect and bright and wonderful! We saw his big brother at the zoo on Monday :)
