Going Batty!

Art Batts

My Strauch Mad Batt'r is my new best friend!

Chunky, glitzy bits to card into the wool.
The Mad Batt'r takes it all!

From the Studio.....

For me, the best part of teaching nuno felt, is watching my students work. Especially those who are new to felt. It's fascinating to observe where each of them take the process.

August Nuno Felt Workshop

We spent a productive two days learning and having fun making nuno felt. Other exciting felt processes that were explored included making pieces of pre-felt and silk paper to add to our designs, plus embelished felt ropes and beads.

Love those beautiful colors!

Nuno Felt pillows are the best!

At Home With Purple

Having indulged  my wanderlust all week, I'm representing purple Friday with samplings of my own, close to home, purple endeavors, including a look at  Burt's beaded leather.  I did toss another Turkey picture in the mix, the purple plates, because everyone liked the blue ones so much.  I have had lots of fun with color week,  especially, for me, remembering so many wonderful sights, and tastes, and beautiful people in the colorful places I have been fortunate enough to visit.  Lisa, thank you so much for offering up this opportunity to contribute to a beautiful effort, and connect with other like minded bloggers.
