I shall post in the afternoon after I get some ornaments attached! I am learning needle felting. It is fun to do.<BR/>I broke all my needles last night so I will have to go get some more. Next time I will be more careful. <BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-45966649571331210.post-13829585857810259802008-12-13T13:11:00.000-08:002008-12-13T13:11:00.000-08:00Dear Cheryl,I think I just start creating!!Some id...Dear Cheryl,<BR/>I think I just start creating!!<BR/>Some ideas, like the felted tree to start with is because I love trees. Some day it will be 8 feet tall and in my studio as a display piece and a sampler...It will be an ongoing project from now on. Each section is to be one year in the making. I started with the top this year and as 2009 unfolds I will be adding to it. Next winter I will soft sculture the next layer and begin decorating it. Hopefully it will always look "finished" and "in process." Sort of like my life!<BR/>I have never worked with willow. I bet it can be trying. Hope you try again. Sometimes projects just take some doing and redoing.<BR/>Being an artist is happy, hard work!<BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-45966649571331210.post-28154730135816464442008-12-13T13:04:00.000-08:002008-12-13T13:04:00.000-08:00Dear ICQB,I am feeling much better, thank you.

I have it in a pot right now and on a bamboo lazy susan.
