Needle felting...
Had an excellent workshop last night, making needle-felted flowers. Thanks to Kellie for organising it. You stab at a bit of fluff with a barbed needle until it turns into something. The needles hurt if they go into flesh (ask me how I know!). I made a big blue flower - not sure how come it came out so big, but it's very pretty! Came away with some needles, a scourer (for working on top of!) and some gorgeous bits of multi-coloured fluff. Not sure what else I'll make with them. Sure is therapeutic - think about something or someone that drives you mad, and stab away! :)
