Local Craft Show
It won’t be long before the Holiday season is here, why not get prepared early and support your local crafters by coming to a craft show.
You will not be disappointed and will surely leave with something special!
Tamar Morgendorff
I first came across this talented artist when I first moved to the states. Her work is so refreshing and I love her use of thread, stitch style and fabric that construct each piece she makes.
Here is a snippet from her website plus some pictures for you to enjoy:
“Using thousand and thousand of fabrics and threads to create her ideas in her Brooklyn workshop, Tamar Mogendorff’s world is populated with swans, bears and mushrooms carefully made by her fairy fingers. The originality of her creations is in the choice and assembly of the fabrics from gaudy to the precious, the subtle or solid.”
Happy Labour Day..
Hope your all having a superb relaxing and fun Labour Day, I came across this artist the other day and just fell in love with her work so I wanted to share it.
drum roll please…..the amazing Abigail Brown
There is so much more on her website and web shop so be sure to check it out.
I shall posting another amazing artist next Monday, stay tuned…
Student creations…
I taught a needle felting flower class this weekend at the lovely Cast Away yarn shop in Santa Rosa, it was a blast as usual and I wanted to share some of my students finished pieces. In the past I have only had grown ups that sign up for the class but this time I had a girl of 6. I was in awe at how skilled she was and she made more flowers than anyone else!!
flowers for hair clips
These will heading off to Cast Away next week..
...and if your interested in learning how to needle felt you can take a class with me at cast away yarn shop on August the 13th.
