Resisting!

The June Felt in was another fun day with Felt. This month we had our own Dympna Curran teaching us about resists. However the session started with our show and tell. Dympna had brought in some beautiful meditative beads, that she had made. Some had seed beads added to them and some had embroidery, all were lovely and much admired.
The girls getting stuck in.
Dympna showed us how to make a small purse using a resist. For inspiration she brought in some beautiful examples of work  that she had made.
First she showed us how to to lay out the fibres on the resist, then showed us how to add some decorative additions. 
Everyone enjoyed the session and the results were very pretty and colourful (see below)
My thanks go to Jane Fox for this report on our June Felt in!

Isn't it great when you are in a lovely friendly group of like minded people! This was emphasised to me this week, when Tina sent me this lovely lamb photo!
How cute is this wee fellow!
Enjoy the summer everyone, and for the lucky few who are on the LIz Clay workshop in July, I will see you there. There will of course be a blog post about it!
Take care.

  1. I love following your blog posts....so great to see all of you. And, though the title of your post is 'resisting'....I'd say that your purses are quite irresistible :-) . You are a very talented group.
