It was great, I saw the llamas, many types of sheep, some with long noble noses,
I watched the fashion parades, made lots of new friends and visited old ones.
I left laden down with fibre and silk, dye, pre-felted batts, felt from Europe
and photos of all of it, including a pic of the best eco dyed scarf I've ever seen
will post photos soon.
In Fitzroy now staying at an old Nunnery in Nicholson Street, quaint and charming
but best of all its only five minutes walk to my shibori workshop tomorrow. We had
dinner at a great Thai restaurant in Brunswick Street and now i'm off to do my homework
which is gathering corks from the bars. We can't buy corks (for shibori) for love or money and it's our job to get some tonight.
Happy Birthday Eileen and Jennifer, I know you read this,
why not follow me, you too Sophie and Gemma

I love felting, particularly Nuno felting which is an innovative Japanese felting technique that combines wool and fabric. This type of felt is made by hand attaching very fine wool fibers to silk.The resulting felt is light weight and has excellent drape and flexibility. It combines the lightness of silk with the warmth and funkiness of unspun wool. As well as felt I love shibori, but FELT comes FIRST Joy Ivill
