Multicoloured scarf


Rainbow combed merino, with 40% silk, multicoloured,
beautiful shiny quality.


I feelted it using bubble plastic .


I will use it as a scarf, it´s soft and nice.


Silk fibers, Hankies


Hankies kallas kokonger av mullbärssilke.
This is what the hankies look like when I have feelted them,
I have not decided yet what I will do with them.

Pepparkaksbak eller...

Nålfiltning med kardad ull, regnbågsfärgad merinoull, silke fiber och angelina fiber en syntetisk metallfiber som man kan blanda i för att få en glittrande effekt men som gör det väldigt svårt att fotografera och att få fram dom rätta färgerna.

This is needlefelted, I have used carded wool, rainbow dyed merinowool, silk fibers and some angelina fibers to give it some sparkling effect, but angelina fibers makes it difficult to take a photo and show the right colors.

Blandat material


Silkesstänger har jag använt till blomman, silkesstängerna har jag delat i två tunnare delar, format och sytt fast på kardad ull, med lite påsydda pärlor.
Nålfiltad handfärgad bambufibrer i pastellfärger.

I have used silk carrier rods, that I have formed as a flower while stitching it on the wool, then I needle felted hand dyed bamboo fibers.

~ November 14, I now have three people that want a handmade gift from me, Thank you!!

I was visiting Lenna Andrews Blog – CREATIVE LENNA and saw this interesting post entitled Pay It Forward. This is a giving idea and I signed up for it. This little handmade gift idea seemed to me to be a way to combine two of my favorite things, crafting and giving.

Pay It Forward – This is how it works: I will make three small handcrafted items, one for each of the first three people who would also like to do this challenge and announce it on their blogs, thus paying it forward. The first three comments left on this post, expressing an interest to volunteer to take this challenge, will continue the deed of kindness and receive a gift from me!

To participate

1. Comment on this post, expressing your wish to participate in "Pay it Forward". I will contact the first three responders for your mailing address so I can send you your giftie. Make sure I have your email! If I can't contact you, I won't be able to include you :

2. The first 3 to comment here who I can contact, will receive a little handmade gift from me.

3. The first three who comment here will post this message on their own blog, and offer three more small gifts, handmade by them. You will be making one gift for each of the first three people who comment on your post, who in turn will go ahead and announce this idea on their blog and then make gifts for the first three people that sign up with them!

~ On & on the cycle continues . . . . . everyone has fun - plus there is beautiful art to enjoy & display in your home and cool mail to anticipate and open!

I hope that you will join me in spreading a little handmade love! Now to get busy & make 3 litle gifts! : )

My messy cover


I made a cover to have some of my paper and fabric stuff in.
I just used som pieces of fabric that I had colored and tested some stamping on.


Front of the cover.
The quote says "Friends are kisses blown to us by angels".


Back of the cover.
I have printed the ribbon on my inkjet printer and the quote says
"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower"
~Albert Camus


This is the inside where I have tested different stamping.
I made the stamps myself it´s different sayings in Swedish.
