Whilst the weather was hot and sunny in Seattle, blogging was low down my list of things to do but since we've had rain and clouds for a few days now, I thought it might be time to share some of the pictures I took back in June! We had a needle-felting morning with six willing young crafters, a pile of roving, needles and blocks of foam. Most of the kids hadn't tried this particular craft before, and were skeptical about how it would all work - how the pile of colored fluff would hold together and take shape. They soon got the idea though and they quickly learnt how to model their work into the shape they were aiming for WITHOUT stabbing their fingers in the meantime. I was delighted with the results - and so were they!
