More Fire

It has been an extremly busy autumn over here and I have hardly been able to get any stitching done at all. Here is a piece I started in September when I went to Austria to take a workshop for Sara. This week I finally managed to find some time to finish it.

This piece is called Fire.
Size: 17cm x 27cm.

So much to do...

... and not enough time. Christmas is only a month away.
Here are some more pics from my silkpainting class.




Have a great week!

Painting silk

Last weekend I took a silkpainting class. Silk is an amazing fiber.

I've tried painting on silk once or twice before and I really wanted to learn some more. I loose my sense of time and space when I paint. Very relaxing!

Have a nice weekend!

International Day of Felt

The Swedish Embroiderers' Guild in Stockholm had a meeting yesterday to celebrate The International Day of Felt. I'm sure you have all heard about FeltUnited and The International Day of Felt.
Yesterday we showed needlefelting by hand and with an embellisher. 27 ladies turned up and did a great job!

























We were also able to show a collection of traditional swedish embroideries. They were made in the 18th and 19th century. The cusions covers are made in wool. Thank you HV for opening your collection for us!






I was busy teaching people how to work with the embellisher all day. So much fun! At the end of the afternoon I managed to make a few stitches on a piece of wool. When I took the workshop for Sara last week she showed us how to make faces. This is a little brooch I made.
