Then two came along at once.

 Before I went to the candle decorating session on Saturday, it had been quite a long time since I had been to a craft workshop but yesterday I went to another, this time for needle felting.


I don't really like needle felting (I don't like wet felting either) but the group needed to make up the numbers so I went.  It was the usual chatty sort of thing and we all made poppies.

And we had coffee and various home made cakes.

And we planned a pre-Christmas lunch together.

And I brought home a felted poppy.  


All very lovely.

But I still don't like needle felting.

  1. You've just reminded me that I was given a needle felting kit some time ago... I should try it and see what I think 🤔
    The poppies looked good

  2. I do love needle felting, but not wet felting, I'm not to good at it but I do enjoy having a go.

    1. I'm one for having a go, too. But not my choice of craft.

  3. Snap-I don’t like wet or dry felting because the wool itches my hands but I do like the results. Lovely poppy. Catriona

    1. It is customary here to wear a poppy in memory of our war dead, especially around Armistice Day (11th November).

  6. I have never done any type of felting and while I like many of the items I have seen I don't think I would enjoy the fussiness of it too much. The poppy is lovely and like you we in Canada always wear a Poppy on November 11th. I am not too sure if Americans do though.

    God bless.

  7. The poppies you and your crafting friends made are lovely. I haven't done any needle felting, but, my daughter has and she enjoys it. :)

    1. I think it can be a lovely craft to do while chatting with friends but personally I just enjoy the chatting.
