I decided to use most of the wool before I plan another order. I found two shades of yellow in my stash and decided to make a cushion. Here it is: felted cushion - merino and viscose fibers www.ipernity.com/doc/724735/42790446 I was planning to stitch on some decorations but my DH said no, don't spoil it. So I kept it simple.

Nada - Less is more! A beautiful cushion. Ann - That's a lot of spinning and looks wonderful drying on the line. I'm thinking of dying some skeins today, though not quite that many.

Nada - quite right - it's a lovely cushion and doesn't need more.
Ann - what a lovely line of 'washing' - gorgeous colours.

Nada the cushion is very "rich" looking, perfect the way it is. The back is lively and creative as well. I saw it on fb.

Just back from hols, and what a treat to see all these wonderful colours and creative creations, just reading and looking is a daily dose of fibre, The dyeing and weaving is just a treat for the eyes and Nada I love the gradiation of the yellows in your cushion - you are all so clever. I have just finished an experimental bit of weaving - not my own yarn :-( but fun regardless still needing a wash for the fibres to settle.
