Weekend fun

Chris had a mini challenge in her blog to raise funds for "Breast Cancer". I am no good at scrapping anything let alone my breasts LOL. So I decided I'd make a little paper doll since it is for a good cause

On Saturday I went to a feltmaking class. It is a 3 week course and I just loved it. It was great fun. The teacher showed us such an easy method. I have read about how to felt in various books and internet article but nothing to beat hands on demo. Here are my first results. Never thought it would be so easy.

    We just had a teacher here from Denmark - I didn't go but a couple of girls from my club did - the work they are turning out now is fabulous! Will you learn to make figures too?

    The paper doll is gorgeous! And your first attempt at felting was a success! Like Kerry, I've thought about, but never actually TRIED it. I may just have to give it a go! Shashi, you are one BUSY lady! Watercolors, felting, paper art, sewing, teaching - GOODNESS! Don't know how you do it all!

    Shashi, I love your paper doll! Looks like you had a great time with felting. How's the long green legged fairy coming along? I am anxious to see her when she is done.
