more mushrooms and ...

The felting course had something for the second week

that fitted quite well :

gnomes !

(some people might think that silly,

but I can tell you that the participants

of the course have (re)found

their inner child !)

After the first chanterelle 

there was another, smaller one.

Then I started with this week's assignment :

gnomes.

First there was one ... but he felt kind of lonely, so ...

he had two friends over to stay

Then, today, I had another go at the mushrooms,

ink mushrooms this time.

(some of those are edible too,

but the combination with alcohol makes them toxic !) 

Ha ... really like to do this !

a new course

Because the last online felting course

(of Corinna Nitschmann)

was such fun

I subscribed to the next one too.

We started with making mushrooms

Because I'm very fond of chanterelles

I chose that one to make first

( I remember looking for them in the woods

when I was a small child )

Hmmmmm ...

thinking what kind

I'll be making next

a little choir

... and we hear the angels singing ...

...

(noooo, of course not,

but why not pretend that we can hear them sing ?)

Some more of these little ladies will follow

and more mushrooms

though no edible ones,

yet

(and yes, a bag,

and some more stitching )
