These teddy bears are up-cycled from old cardigans and scraps of fabric. We are going to organise a workshop later in the year. I love making things from stuff that would normally be thrown out.
This week we have been going crazy over making pom poms to make rugs and cushion covers – watch this space
Another woven rag rug started and a crochet one finished
… and some of us did some painting
At Mardi Crafts this morning there was knitting, paper crafts, crochet, rag rug weaving, cork craft and painting
This rug is made by plaiting as you go in a round and hooking into the previous plait – best made with stretchable fabric
While Jeudi Art is taking a winter break I have been busy working on new projects for this year’s courses
We were mostly making cards this week
Jackie was painting a commission and I was doing another seascape and trying it for size in the frame
Lots of different things were being done this week
and it was good to see some painters on Thursday
so many different styles
