Felted Pumpkins

The top 2 pumpkins and the small orange one on the bottom 

are felted from roving, and  I completed them this week.

Recycled Sweaters

These pumpkins I made from old sweaters I had collected to make the sweater mittens.

New sculptures placed locally on Sunday

These 2 sculptures were commissioned by James Boyd from Hampton.
