I haven't created as many projects as I'd like to..life gets in the way here! I am new to felting and have only done 4 projects so far. All that you have seen on my Flickr account are the only ones I have ever done. I do love it though. I tend to be very meticulous with my work so it takes a bit longer to complete than I'd like. But I am getting better at it and hope I'll be able to make more things a bit quicker. Right now I am finishing up a mermaid for an April challenge in one of my groups and hopefully will have it done by tomorrow..when it's finished I will post it to flickr and either be selling it in my etsy shop or on ebay..so I'll let you know. I would love any feedback youi may have on it when it's complete. This is the only way for me to gauge my felting ability and progress..So I thank you for your interest and really appreciate your comeents.Thinkoutsidethebox2008https://www.blogger.com/profile/00109544404828782735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2772893233518210257.post-31151581951052582732008-04-09T19:36:00.000-04:002008-04-09T19:36:00.000-04:00Hi, We in Australia are lucky when it gets cold in...Hi, We in Australia are lucky when it gets cold in winter, we don't get wet snow to contend with, unless you go up to the mountains. I wear crocs or any other slip-ons, all year round. Have done so for years. These recent winters, I am snug in my crocs with my felt boots inside them. Never got round to sealing the soles with latex, and then for convenience, just began stuffing my felted feet into my crocs, and then into my partners, larger sized ones.(This made it easier on the boots as the first year I did make a few holes in boots by squeezing feet in or walking half out the back.But having made the boots by wet felting method I discovered it was much easier to repair holes by needle-felting, which I did. Last year 'tho' I just left the holes for ventilation, as they are so warm and snug. Being wool they also keep my feet warm if they get slightly wet on outside. Wouldn't work for wet snow, unless you latexed the whole foot part. I once had an old pair of short UggBoots, bought at an Opp shop(thrift shop), with a hole in one toe,and they'd been covered in boot polish, which was great for the wet mizzily winter in Tasmania, I lived in them. <BR/>Talking about Spring cleaning, I'm doing my Autumn cleaning, and using all the 'finds'(things I've found, kept, and just put somewhere for use in the future), into some Recycled Crochet Wearable Art, check out my flickr set WIP's flickr.com/photos/artnomadix<BR/>Hey I found your site by looking for your needle-felting, but I haven't seen any yet, where do I go to see some, MegAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
