Sunday was spent in Solvang at the Art Clinic where Barbara Carr treated us to a fun felt inlay class. I am thinking this might be a great class to offer at Artfiberfest. It is a bit easier on the body than the Nuno felting class and I like the way you can get fine detail with the pre-felt, like doing a collage. Above is my first attempt, then I did the flying bird, below and the pink confetti, just for fun.
Jill is laying out her felt as she starts designing her piece.
A beautiful scarf that Barbara made.
i think this is Jill's piece....
More felt pieces....close up.

This is stage one..before felting.....laying out the design...

Saturday found me at a lovely memorial for one of my South Pasadena school friends'father. There was a large gathering of friends and family who spoke and shared stories and memories among the giant oak trees of the Carpinteria Cemetary. I asked Diana's daughter to take a photo of 4 high school friends and added a photo from 20 years ago at my wedding (no.2) on the hottest day of the year here in Santa Barbara.

I love the photos of you and your friends now and then. Can't wait to see the classes for ArtFiberFest.
Would love this felt project for Artfiberfest! Don't think I will ever tire of looking at felted pieces and these are wonderful. What a fun day you had. The body friendly aspect sounds especially good. : ) Nuno is really fun, but I still can't believe some folks got three done that day.
Went to my 40th class reunion right before AFF and gathered with a group of friends the day before. Old friends are a treasure aren't they?
