Felting

I've discovered felting. It all started with some Manos del Uruguay knitted slippers that were designed to be felted. (Unfortunately they're still too big; must thread in some elastic.) Moved on to wool sweaters from Goodwill, which — if I ever find the time — will be deconstructed into purses and embellished with embroidery. Anyone know of a source for transfer paper other than the chalk tracing stuff from the fabric store?

So many projects, so little time

For a long time, the urge to create deserted me. It has returned, for which I am glad ... but as always, there is the issue of time. There simply are not enough hours in the day.

I have patterns of clothes I want to make for the girls. There are slippers I want to knit and felt. The box covers I saw on vacation, as well as the jewelry that reinspired me. There is more home decor to finish.
