Needle Felted Art Piece at the Zoo

I entered the Utah's Hogle Zoo Art Contest and my piece was selected to be in the show. I didn't win a prize but it was fun to go see it hanging in the gallery along with the over 100 other beautiful pieces. It will be on display until March 14th. It is constructed from needle felted wool and is hung from part of a fallen tree limb.

I work with natural fibers of cotton and wool. This includes knitting, quilt making, needle felting, and sewing and yes even crocheting. I am learning a new crochet pattern for a baby afghan from Pat. Just going into a fabric shop and seeing all the wonderful prints is exciting.The myriad of fabrics is delightful. I enjoy all kinds of flowers--flower gardening, painting flowers, pressing flowers, and felting flowers. The out of doors is my favorite place to create. It may be a birdhouse with a succulent covered roof and a rock faced front, tufa pots, or cement leaves or it could be about anything that looks interesting. I like to do journal writing and family history (mostly I like to read and collect the histories and I love the old photographs). I like to read non-fiction and historical fiction. If it's a true story or based on one, I'm interested.
