“Wrapped Candy” ovum
I was gifted some interesting yarn. And once I looked closer at it, it was tubelike. I decided to see if I liked it pulled over my ovum. It was fun! The beads were sewn in the cross hatches and additional beads in the in between parts. A little gold beads for a glimmer. The Read more

I’ve started a new ovum that is being done in all blues. I wanted to show it before and during the beading process. I find it hard because I like both the un- beaded side and the beading. Read more

Here is the picture of the before yarn colors and the after felting yarn colors. I will probably try to shave the orbs a little bit to bring out the colors again. I am pleased that they retained color as it is easy to have the color dissipate in the hot water to get the Read more

“Darkest Hour/ Saved Our Soul“
I think I’m done with my soft sculpture (pillow). The colors were my take off point for this piece. Then came the beading. After finishing the two sides I felt it talking to me about the two sides. The front was muted and dull ish. The three crosses in a circle spoke much of this Read more

I’m on fire

I usually shear it after it’s felted (and still will do) because all the fibers get fuzzy and slightly mask the original colors before the felting process. I decided to burn with a lighter the wool in places where the color Read more
