Felt, Nuno Felt, Capes and Awards

I could almost start every post with, "Gosh I've been busy..."  but really I have. Here's some pics to prove it. My entries into this years Royal Brisbane Show - EKKA - and the sections they were in.

Then there are all the gossamer shawls I have been making to order.

And this very special full length one

and these are only the nuno-felts.

There are also the shibori silks

Eventually I'll get some of these listed in my Etsy shop.

Oh, and how did I go at the Show?

A few shawls for cooler nights

I have been a little busy rearranging my life of late and now I have time to do more here. So here are a few of the things I've been up to...

I used some of the inspiration gained from the Sketchbook Project 2012 for this shawl.

The texture of the silk is sumptuous. And I love the way the silk threads have wriggled and wrinkled during the felting process.

These are a few other accessories I've put together.

The strong design on this black red and maroon shawl is also a result of the excercise of putting together my entry to the Sketchbook Project 2012.

You can find the last two items in my Etsy Store but the top shawl is on its way to Sydney for a show.
