Lovely silk hankies Tracey. They are always fun and give beautiful effects. Personally, I like any kind of bling. :-)

Nice hankies Tracey! Perhaps locks? But really embellishing with other stuff like surface design and machine stitching.

Ooooh very pretty hankies! My favourite embellishments (if I had to choose and it is difficult) would be nepps and free motion stitching.

Yes I'm with you Lyn on the nepps and FM, lovely! Nepps are such challenging little devils, you just have to be patient with them though and they behave.

I'm a fibre addict. I have pretty much every embellishment fibre you can buy (except seacell and aluminium tops-which I regret not buying!). I probably shouldn't, but I really like nylon staple, it dyes so well, and is so versatile for texture.

I would have to say I love silk hankies and caps. I dye them myself. I also love wool locks.

MY daily dose today and yesterday was teaching a felted cat cave class. I always forget how heavy the huge pieces are when wet. I am pooped but everyone had a good time. I am hoping to get pictures of the caves after they have dried. I will share them when I do.

Looking forward to seeing photos of the cat caves! I do remember making a cat cave and how heavy it was when wet. To boot, my cats pretty much ignored their new home.

My daily dose yesterday was warping up a gilet for Peter and making a start on the weaving. More weaving this evening and I had my hair cut today - well after all it's fibre too!

Thanks Ruth, I had forgotten about those. Thanks Lyn that's a good one. I wonder what the wool is. It ends up very thick for not that much wool. What may I ask is a gilet, Judith? Todays daily dose was felting soap.
