In love with Icelandic wool

I just picked up 10oz of gray Icelandic wool from Weaving Works. I am totally in love with the smell and texture of this fiber! I first spun a sample of it and made a 2-ply cord to wear as a belt for my Halloween costume.
Then I felted a sample of it and was very impressed at how quickly it felted up. I decided to add some merino wool to it and made a creepy neckscarf to wear for the season. I would like to felt longer scarves, but unfortunately I only have the length of my bathtub to work in right now. Sigh.

Candy Corns Included in Blog and Treasury!

Thanks to Wendy at BagsandBugs for including my Felted Candy Corn on her blog!

And thank you AliceInLove for including my sweet candy corn treats in your treasury!

People do love candy corn! Yum!

Candy Corn and other Creepy Halloween Inspiration

I love Halloween, and one of my weaknesses this time of year is definitely candy corn. I both love and despise candy corn. I decided to needlefelt some of these sweet treats so I would enjoy the sight of them, while avoiding the feeling of stomach discomfort after ingesting them :(

This year I am going out on the town as a dark sorceress. This blog is totally inspiring my dark sorceress costume. I love Lady Lavona's Cabinet of Curiosities! This lady really knows how to keep it creepy in the most artful of ways.

Back from Spain and published!

I have returned from an amazing, inspiring journey in Spain!
While travelling I was informed that one of my flowers will be included in the book 1000 Artisan Textiles to be published in May 2010 by Rockport Publishers/Quarry Books. I'm really excited!

QueenHeronCreations on vacation!

I will be on vacation in Spain from September 7 until the 29th. I am so very excited to explore Barcelona, and visit a friend on Mallorca! I hope to soak in all the stunning art and eat all the delicious food! When I return, there will be a burst of new creations from my felted flower shop. See you then!
