If you had asked me last year would I be doing the following - AND ENJOYING IT - I would have said you were off your rocker! What a difference a year makes!!!!! You may have read about the disastrous class I went to for using the Embellishing machine! No further comment!!
Well, in a round about way I discovered Myfanwy Hart. Woohoo am I glad I did. Just look what I have achieved through her DVD. I am totally amazed at myself., and yes Di, I AM enjoying it. These are my samples from following the DVD on my new gadget hubby bought me at the weekend. A portable DVD player. WOOHOO indeed! These are not in the order I did them from the DVD, I have managed to muddle them up somehow. Oops! Not to worry, I am showing the fronts and the backs as the backs are somethimes very interesting - well, I think they are.
Off we go then..................
Swirls,
I love doing these - as you will see...
this is just joining wool together to make felt, no backing involved...
these two are raised, although you may not be able to see it on here -
trust me, they are...
this was using 'snippets' of threads...
and this was using snippets of fabrics...
I branched out then and tried a landscape -hubby likes this one...
I have a love of trees and always manage to get them in whatever it is I am doing...
So there we are - who would have thought it?
Thanks Di and Thank You Myfanwy.
Can't wait to get the next DVD

I love the colors you use! I'm showing my "royal mail" from you on my blog in the morning!!!
Brilliant Jan. Now I need to get myself going.
Back to work today but not sure for how long as I really don't feel brilliant at all.
Excellent! The order doesn't matter at all. You are really branching out - and I love it!
Brilliant pieces Jan. Thank goodness your bad experience did not put you off. Just think what you would have missed (and us).
look at you, learning something new. you amaze me. hugs
Wow, Jan! The dvd is brilliant, isn't it? Must find some time to play myself....
Fiona. :)
Well done!!
Great needle felting, Jan.
I love what you have done with the wool. Isn't needle felting fun? I have an attachment on my machine that allows me to do this. Although I don't get to do it as often as I would like. You know, not enough hours in the day.
These are brilliant Jan, you are very creative, and so talented too, what a great combination, you can't fail with that cocktail! I shall look forward to seeing what else you do with your new machine.
