Nuno Felt and Threads Go Together.

Some nuno felt completed recently set me into  making something small  with stitches,  beads and buttons for embellishment.

Each side, including the top and base were stitched  to create a different effect.

Although it is soft and flexible it  holds  felt balls.

I love how textural this little piece is.  It has own beauty.
It is definitely 'one of a kind.'

Wanaka Embroidery School

Begining with a blank piece of fabric,  is a daunting but exciting prospect.
What will this become?  There is no kit and instructions on how to do this.
Thankfully our tutor was very helpful, offering suggestions and supplying
beautiful stamps and inks to begin stamping our fabric.

After a variety of stitches, colours, and threads were worked on top
of the stamping, we began to see some progress.

I thoroughly enjoyed my first ever experience of
Embroidery School at Wanaka.
