I also started a waistcoat / gilet / vest using some more of Zara's Gotland locks, more on that next time...
The journey of a new designer-maker. A City and Guilds qualified felt maker, I love the magic of turning a pile of fluffy wool fibre into beautiful and functional fine felt and exploring new textile techniques.

Sewer's Friends
This week I have been making a selection of "sewer's friends", essentially a cross between a pin cushion and a felt bowl, I have a larger one of these and find it invaluable when working with beads; the bowl part keeps the beads under control and I can thread up a few needles in the pin cushion, all ready to go.
