I am really inspired by this artist. Shinzi Katoh. The simple and cute red riding hood. It has the gnome aesthetic. I love just this little case/purse.

Very happy with the Lily. The center stamen (?) each two pieces (yellow and orange)

3D felting

Worked on this at night...
It's a WIP. Still needs stamen center and perhaps some leaves. It is a Rubrum lily. Similar also to the stargazer lily.
It's 6 separate petals each two colors.

Fiddling with small needle felted items

I'm really enjoying needle felting flowers and "stuff" for the Gnome Domes. Most of the embellishments are about an inch or two, so it's small work.
No Gnome Dome would be complete without some forest mushrooms
Small 3D buzzing bee...
View from above.
3D daffodil. The center "cup" is a single needled piece. The 6 outer petals were needled together then joined with the cup. Here's the side view.
I'm working on a rubrum lily... I'll post tomorrow.
And here's another photo of the Gnome Domes

Got a complete overhaul!

My daughter is home from school for a super short time -- she's been kind enough to help me with all things computer related. I explained to her what I wanted to accomplish and she's been super helpful. My blog got an overhaul. I now have a website! and an Etsy store! I think I need to pinch myself.
I took the photo (it's with her camera -- but the colors didn't come out that great) -- It's the lighting -- I'll retake with my crappy camera tomorrow...

Can't escape wanting to do more green

I'm drawn to the greens...
After experimenting with blue/teal type colors, I decided to dye some roving yarn... Yes back to green
The teal color is there...
Then, I did two batches of yarn. One is slightly more yellow, the other slightly more blue.

And one more time....

I was looking at my stash of colors and I feel I need a more varied selection of blue...
I started out with this...
But I'm looking for something less cotton candy-ish...
I really want dark and rich...
I'm getting there...
Green added to the mix
