Not much to say, just pictures to share.

a new tree

But they will still be fondly referred to as 'tree folk.' I've got a new forest that will be making their way to LOLA soon enough. I've also got a wild new idea involving their shape and a specific type of flower which has just popped out of the ground in my backyard this week. I'm hoping I can execute them using felt. Having an idea is one thing, actually trying to shape it into something artistic and inspiring is another.


And on another note: Obama! Woot woot! Can I say how proud and honored I am to just bear witness to this day, this moment in history. Congratulations America!

Some wonderful news friends. I've been approached by a beautiful store (name title above) who wants to carry a couple of my felted items. Eeep! I just finished my order for her, and my little tree folk family with some baby acorns will be on their way to Berkeley California tomorrow.

Someone pinch me!

tree folk

I've been quite liking this view of the tree folk. It almost makes me feel like I'm in a helicopter overlooking the pine forests somewhere in British Columbia. Silly, I know.

I've got three sets of tree folk going up in Etsy soon. They still to be properly photographed, which I'm hoping to do today. I used the new shipment of natural rovings from Germany for this project. Shades of brown, caramel, chocolate, tan, off-white, which sounds almost as delicious as they look. It'll be a toughie combining these. All the colors complement each other so well.
