Off to BrickBox this afternoon and noticed how much out trees had changed colour, in the last few days.
This the road l walk down to get to the top of Putney Hill..beautiful at this time of year.
I love Tooting, it is so vibrant, colouful and very Ethnic. This is the entrance to Tooting market, where the Art Cafe is situated.
The image below shows two of the people l work with in BrickBox...can you see why l love being here! They are so much fun, so dedicated and great to create with! The moustach was printers ink which is washable!!!!!.......don't ask! Ha!
At the BrickBox we are celebrating Halloween tomorrow. Hence all these clay skulls l turned out this afternoon!!!!
As you can see from the image below...people/children will be decorating the skulls tomorrow. They will also be Halloween Mobiles to be made, face painting to created and lots of fun to be had by all...l hope! Then in the evening, a free adult party...making shrines, facepainting, and much more.
Lots of Mexican decorations.
On the way home, l saw this perfect "Time" clock.
My drying rack is full of drying dyed fabric. Felted wool on the top rack.and 6 more below!!
Some wool and silk being dyed pink with advocado stones.
Now some more completed sewing dyed bits. This is a piece of felted wool, dyed with Ecu leaves. I loved sewing it, so easy to work with.
Loved this part of the piece...lots of little straight stitches..so calming. Sorry images are not to clear, it was late at night and under artificial light..not a good time to take images!!Just wanted to show you what l have been doing lately!
This piece of felted wool was a weird shape but l decided to sew it as it was anyway. It looks like a flag, so maybe as l now have vcreated two, l will start making a few more!
As many of you may remember, l love creating circles...and there are a few on this flag!.
Have a great weekend. x lynda x
