Now for the story about the felted book
called
'HEART FELT".
It was made
for a dear blogging friend, Paula,
who
is currently recovering
in Intensive Care following major
heart surgery.
Paula just adores roses so I thought it fitting
to create one based on roses.
The pages have been collaged and quilted
onto chocolate coloured felt
using a selection of vintage laces
and rose fabrics from
my fabric stash.
I made this to give her inspiration,
courage and strength
for what she was about to face.
This is where it sits - right beside her bed
and it will be there waiting for her
on her return home
for Christmas.
Paula sent me these gorgeous gifts
which she made before she left for the surgery.
Paula is an extremely talented dollmaker,
mixed media artist,
embroiderer, needle worker
and collage artist.
We are all sending Paula lots of healing energy,
love and support
during this most difficult time
and looking forward to seeing her back in her garden
and her beautiful studio enjoying each day full of health
and happiness.
Paul's condition is a very sobering reminder of our very short time on this planet and how we must make the best
use of it
as well as the need to look out for each other!
Just a few more completed needlebooks here
which have already been sold!
A final reminder to you all
about my
GIVEAWAY!!!

Wishing you all a most relaxing weekend!
A couple of my blogging friends have
also just become the
proud owners of 4 legged fury babies
and
I wish them lots of fun in
getting to know their new family members!
