Another UFO finished. A honey bee lifecycle play set. The bee has different outfits to represent the different stages. I might make another one so I can dress both.

Ever since I was given a bunch of plastic takeaway containers I've been wanting to turn them into felted plant pots. Yesterday was a rainy day so perfect to have a go. Now I have identified that at least another 3 plants need a pot like this 😅

My bees are keeping me busy, so there is no time for craft. Here is another blast from the past, the first of many of these dolls I made, "silly miss Tilly" 2015. Time flies when you are having fun 😁.

Scrolling to find some pictures of needle felted gnomes, I came across this blast from the past. The pumpkin is sitting on my desk at the moment. 😍

We made some felted flowers at our creative fibre group yesterday. A quick, easy, little craft project.

Spinning for a bulky yarn. It takes a bit of effort after spinning lots of fine yarn. But it is a lot faster! Mainly fleece from my own Gotland sheep, dyed and carded by me.
