Felting kits

I had mentioned that I would post about the felting kits, then I got involved with making stuff. I really like what I make and like the making. So here is the kit!

I have included everything - except water and an old towel - that you would need to get started felting, this is a great way to start and try out a new craft! Each kit has an ounce of fiber in all sorts of colors and breeds - Each bag is a little different so dig through and pick your favorite! - a roller, a textured mat, netting, a small bar of soap, rubber, and a resist. Also, included is a instruction sheet that I put together. The one thing I did not include is project ideas, all the creativity is left to you.

Shown here is a friend testing the kit for me.

I will be posting ideas here though. ~Julia

The to-do list before the Show

I have a terrible habit of starting projects and then getting called away. When I come back is were the terrible part comes in, I don't always finish the project I was working on, sometimes I do, sometimes I start a different thing. Then I get called away... Are you noticing a pattern?

So before this weekend's show, I need to clean house of partially done projects. I have embroidery kits, crochet hook cases, knitting needle cases, and project bags. I also have to print out the instructions for the felting kits (more in this post) and add them to the kits.

I have some beautiful new skeins and weaving to inventory and tag. (This sounds quick but it actually takes quite a bit longer than I ever give it and I really don't want to put it off until Friday or worse Friday night!)

I have to either finish making the new tablecloths, they are a bright blue knit and are giving me some trouble, or buy Holiday tablecloths.

I want to pick up a small tree - we have some beautiful wooden and beaded ornaments to offer this time! - to show these off.

I want to do some dyeing in larger lots and maybe do some more embroidery skeins.

I also need to make a few more fascinators and vessels.

Okay, well looking at that, I really need to get off the computer and get to work.
