NEW WORK

I tried out a different direction in my work, this is the result using a
piece of silk and felting fibres into it. The most difficult part was trying
to guess what size piece of fabric I needed to start with allowing for the
shrinkage. I must say I am pleasantly surprised with the result.




  This one is similar just slightly different colourway.

Christmas Message 2016
Happy Christmas and A Prosperous New Year!
As a design studio we feel that our Christmas message should be an exemplar. We should give it some proper thought and create something both clever and beautiful. However. After visiting the local barbers for a beard trim, Scott came across the best client to customer Christmas message probably ever created. Succinct and very ‘Christmassy’. So we thought we would simply reproduce it for you here, in our annual Happy Christmas email, as our thank you to you – for being a valued friend of Special Design Studio.
(We have to thank Gary at GTS male hair design for letting us take the photograph. Both Scott and Clive recommend him. For more information visit www.gt-s.co.uk)

TEST


  This is a test of your observation!!! Does anyone know what this picture
is depicting?


CHRISTMAS TREE


  I made this Christmas Tree using wet felting it was quite a challenge as I
had never attempted such a complicated 3D project before. Needless to say I
will not be making another one as it took such a long time to create.  It
was eventually put in a charity auction and raised a fair amount of money.


WOOL ANGELS


 Some festive decorations in the form of felted Merino wool angels. I make
these in many colours not just white so they can coordinate with colour
schemes. This picture was taken last year when we had some snow, wonder if
we will get any this year?

NEW SEASON


This photo of a Poinsettia plant was taken whilst travelling in India back
in March this year I thought it very appropriate for the time of year now,
so it comes to wish you all a Very Happy Christmas.
