My life revolves around textiles and felt of which I sell via the internet. I would much rather prepare fabrics and lace for sale or make beautiful felt pieces than sit at the computer. BUT alas it has to be done. SO now you know what I am doing all day today.<br />

This year has been very difficult for me. To get through it all I have concentrated in the main on my art work, felting and embroidery have been my saviours.<br /><br />Now that I seem to have come out to the other side I am ready to start sharing my creations.</div>

I have called this art piece 2018 Hot Summer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is all handmade including the felt that the textiles and embroidery have been added to. The felt has been made using merino wool fibres and pure silk strands and felted by the wet felting method. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

I love to use antique textiles in my work and the flower above is early 19th century.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
There is lots of history in this piece as the lace and silks are very old as well. The embroidery threads I used are either antique or vintage. I love to add something different and the little butterfly on the flower has been cut from some antique embroidered braid.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

This art piece has been attached to an acid free mount board ready for framing.</div>

Today I am completing an embroidered floral wall hanging I've been working on for a while. I'll show it to you tomorrow. I'm also going to make some small felted pictures today, so windows open and fans on.</div>

Well with one thing and another, this year so far has been rather traumatic. Mum went down hill rapidly since Christmas with lots of falls, numerous A&E admissions and the final stages of vascular dementia. She had to be moved from her care home to a nursing home, it was heartbreaking. My mother died in April and as the only child and executor of her will I've had a lot to sort out. Everything has now been sorted out and I've been able to get myself together by starting to felt again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm going to try to spend more time adding more items to nuMONDAY. I've been hanging on to most of my felt work because I had visions of standing at craft fairs in the future. Whether that willl happen I don't know but in the meantime I need some creations on so that other people can enjoy them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

What a lovely little chap, he really cheers me up on this dark and dismal day.</div>

The shot was taken on a walk through the Silverdale RSPB Leighton Moss nature reserve. There were robins everywhere, in fact one flew almost into my granddaughter's face.</div>

Today I pick up my new after my old had engine failure. I'm a little apprehensive, although it is a lovely car it has an electronic hand brake which I've never had before. Just worried about hill starts as I was told that you have to put your foot on the brake when disengaging the hand brake. I will have to have a long chat with the garage and do lots of practice if that is the case. I always feel a little nervous driving different cars for at least the first couple of time but I'm sure I'll get used to it.</div>

Off to see mum this afternoon in her care home. She will soon be 91 and has developed alzheimers with vascular dementia. I always feel so sad when I visit her as she is in a world of her own and can't follow a conversation at all. The upside is that she is getting 24 hour care and her room has a wonderful view over Morecambe bay to the hills of the Lake District.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It has been quite a while since I wrote anything on here and I do apologise.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">There has been so many things happening. Firstly I was preparing all of the food for our large 25th wedding anniversary party. Ever since we have been married my husband has been the cook in our house. He has been a star as it has allowed me to get on with my Rag Rescue and Feltissimo business (Now called RR & F Textiles).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">However just for once I wanted to prove to myself that I could still cook and I did achieve my aim. I produced all home baked food, a three course banquet for three days for over 20 people at our house. It was wonderful but I was exhausted afterwards.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Then we went on a well deserved holiday, but whilst there I started working embroidering every evening and have continued since.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Yesterday I started putting some handmade nuno felt brooches into my etsy shop, perhaps you would like to have a look. they are great for presents, birthday, Christmas etc and can be worn, placed on bags, used like patches on pockets etc.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here is a quick look at the ones I put on yesterday. If you would like to see and read more details then please click the link at the top of this post.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I post worldwide and take on commissions.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b> </b></span>My inspiration for this pretty felt brooch was a sparkling island and the sea as the sun shone down on them.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I make all of my felt by hand layering wool fibres together and wet
felting them so that the fibres become entangled creating a firm felt
fabric. For this brooch, I have also added some silk fibres to give more
texture. I machined around various areas of the island which has raised
them up and added french knots in antique metallic silver thread.
Running stitches in the same thread have been added to the sea.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b> </b></span>When making the felt my the wet felt method I covered the merino wool
with pure silk. This has given the brooch a wonderful tactile
smoothness. To get a spotted pattern on the boot I needle felted
afterwards which has left tiny spots over the surface where the
underlying wool shows.<br /><br />The hand embroidery adds further detail and I used vintage silk threads to work stem stitch and french knots.</div>

Brooches need to be handled quite a lot, so in order to make the brooch
firm, I have sandwiched a layer of Decovil light iron interfacing
between the felt front and the vintage fabric back to which I added a
secure pin.</div>

make all of my felt by hand, using Merino wool fibres. By using the wet
felting method, I get the the wool fibres to entangle together to
create a firm felt fabric. The machine stitching I have used on the felt
brooch has raised some areas creating small flower beds which I filled
with embroidery. A variety of stitches were used using vintage recycled
silk threads. Further texture was added by using 1930’s rococco ribbon
flowers. I also added on this brooch two other lilac vintage flowers, to
make this felt brooch unique. </span><b> </b></span></div>

My inspiration for for this pretty felt brooch was a country garden.<br /><br />I
make all of my felt by hand, using Merino wool fibres. By using the wet
felting method, I get the the wool fibres to entangle together to
create a firm felt fabric. The machine stitching I have used on the felt
brooch has raised some areas creating small flower beds which I filled
with embroidery. A variety of stitches were used using vintage recycled
silk threads. Further texture was added by using 1930’s rococco ribbon
flowers to make this felt brooch unique. </div>

<br />The
four seed pods are made from antique silks which I make on the
embellisher machine by layering together different silks. I have then
machine stitched around the seed pods which makes them stand up slightly
proud. These add further texture to the brooch. I have hand embroidered
the stems with tiny chain stitches using a fine antique goldwork
thread. French knots complete the embellishments.</div>

I have made this pretty felt brooch with four silk flowers.<br /><br />This
little brooch is handmade The felt has been made using turquoise
coloured merino wool fibres with additions of silk fibres. The felt has
been made by myself by a process of wet felting so that the hooks on
the wool all lock together creating a strong fabric.<br /><br />The flowers have petals made from antique silk chiffon scarves and have a French knot embroidered at the centre.</div>

In order to make the whole brooch stiffer I have sandwiched a layer of

My inspiration for this pretty <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felt">felt brooch</a> was the colours, hues and patterns at Autumn in the countryside.<br />
I
make all of my felt by hand layering wool fibres together and wet
felting them so that the fibres become entangled creating a firm felt
fabric.</div>

This pretty felt brooch will make a wonderful addition to a jumper,
cardigan, dress or blouse. It would also look great on a bag. Ideal for a<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas"> Christmas gift</a>.<br />
<br />
The customer will receive the felt brooch
packaged securely in a box. I will then place the box in a plastic
postage bag to keep dry. Feltissimo has many years experience of
shipping items. I pride myself in ensuring that all items arrive at
their destination in good condition.<br />

I've had quite a difficult year due to my daughter having had breast cancer. This has meant that I haven't been able to do as much felting as I would have like. However when I was able I found it so very theraputic and it helped me get through those dark days. This is the reason why I haven't been able to post anything for at least a year and I miss having conversations with people.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you like what you see on this blog or if you can make any suggestions as to how I could improve it then please leave a message. I know that there are people out there looking and I would really appreciate being able to chat.</div>
