I've had a sore right upper arm/shoulder this past week and not sure if it can be attributed to a rather enthusiastic dance partner last week and/or the needle felting or indeed if I'm getting a right frozen shoulder now! Oh my???
I'm pondering the last printed photos I have from last February and have started the trawl through the files for the next lot to be printed. Big job for the year!
Anyways here's my finished 2D picture of the mushroom.
I hot glued the trimmed felt backing inside the back of the hoop and popped some card in with the mushroom name etc.
Amanita Muscaria (Fly Agaric)
I had a look in some charity shops for a container to display my mushroom in and found this metal ivy shaped dish for £3 - perfect.
I was going to buy some artificial ivy but remembered the chair garlands from my wedding (nearly 27years ago) of which I'd kept one.
It was rather sorry having been in the loft for so long, I discarded the paper/ribbon and I washed the ivy and roses, so all sorted.
I made a second smaller mushroom to accompany my original mushroom and a base for them too. How cute is that?
I then cracked out the poppy pack from Jo (Twiglet) and made a poppy landscape inspired by Maxine @ Tilly Tea Dance
I added it to my fabric book with a funky bird on the facing page inspired by our very own
Julia.
Isn't WOYWW the bestest most inspiring group of like minded crafty people ever! Huge thanks to all.
