What’s new at the studio

 

Baskets!

I enjoyed a wonderful basket-making class at the Petersham Art Center yesterday, and learned how to make this lovely wine basket. It still needs to be stained, but I’m feeling pretty amazed with the results! Sue Morello is an awesome teacher, and I highly recommend taking a class at the center.

Mittens!

It’s beginning to look a lot like… I won’t say it. The holiday season is warming up! Hand-crafted mittens are available for $20 a pair plus shipping. Each pair is unique – pieced together from recycled wool sweaters and felt. Double layers = double warm!

On the lake

Felting!

It has been a goal of mine for a long time to explore the craft of felting. I bought books and all the “stuff”, which sat untouched in a box for  y e a r s … Well, I brought the box with me while vacatfelting-pup-for-webioning in Maine recently, and lo and behold – created this little guy! He’s wee – only 3″ long, but BIG on CUTE! This will a fun creative outlet during the cold winter months ahead!
