A five sided box

Another box. This time it's a pentagon.

Box measures 1 1/2 inches high and 1 3/4 inches wide


Made using the peyote stitch and tubular peyote stitch.


Beads used are Delica size 11.

A few quilts

Ok, so I haven't been doing much needle felting. But, I am working on my first needle felted Basenji, so far I have the body and front legs started.

Here are a few quilts I made.

The top quilt has Basenji appliques and the bottom quilt has Whippet appliques. All quilting is done with 100% cotton fabric.

Black Horse

Here is a commissioned horse I finally finished.

Needle felted from Norwegian and Dorset wools.
No patterns are ever used to create my one of a kind needle felted sculptures.

He measures 6.75 inches tall , 8.75 inches long and not quite 2" wide.

Another box

Yes, I'm facinated by these boxes.

So this time I've made a six sided box.

It's about 1.5 inchhes tall excluding the feet., and 1.75 inches wide.

And yes I have also finished needle felting a black horse.

Alas

I have nothing made this week. But, I do have things in progress, like, a hexagon beaded box, a black needle felted horse and two small appliqued quilts.

In the meantime here are some pics of my boys.

Nearly my two year old on the left with his best buddy Buster who is 5 years old.
Here is Nearly lying on the bed. How can you not love that sweet face. This sweet boy can do no wrong!!

The pile party consisting of Skeezix my 14 years old, bless his sweet old self. Buster in the middle and as usual Nearly on the bottom.

Thanks for looking!!
