We have a Holiday postcard exchange going on over at the felting forum. Angela from the UK sent me a lovely “card”. Actually it is more of a felt picture as it is bigger than a postcard.
It reminds me of a snowy evening.
It has wonderful texture.
And a bit of sparkle which is hard to see in the photograph. I mailed one to Angela at the beginning of the week but I won’t be able to show you that one until she receives it. Thanks Angela – it’s beautiful!
Ruth, that’s a really lovely holiday card you received from Angela…love the texture. I was thrilled to receive my holiday postcard today from Judy in Michigan. It’s posted on the forum!
It is great fun getting art postcards in the mail. I used to do quite a few exchanges, haven’t done them lately except the forum exchanges.
Very beautiful art piece Ruth.
Yes – Angela did a beautiful job, didn’t she?
Your photograhpy succeeded – I can see the sparkles clearly in the last photo. I wonder if Angela could foresee, when she made the snowflake felt, the vast amount of snow that has hit the US?
Thanks Lyn – yes, Angela was certainly prophetic with her postcard design. We haven’t gotten the heavy snow like the east coast though. We need more to start skiing soon 🙂
It’s beautiful. I see small snowflakes and 2 Edelweiss! 🙂
Thanks Judith – it’s lovely, isn’t it?
Everyone is so talented…I wanted to do something unique, that used local british wools Herdwick. It is a good job that I did not realise that Ruth is quite famous. ( sitting reading her book when I see Ruth’s picture and have a oh heck moment ) Luckly, it was already in the post by then or I would still be trying to decide what to do.
Angela – I’m not sure about the famous part. Yes, I wrote a book but the opportunity just kind of fell into my lap and I had lots of help 🙂 And your piece was wonderful, I love that it is made from local wool.
