Don't Eat the Berries!

IMG_2398

As you can see, I've been needle felting blue birds. The bluebirds are not attached to the holly. I haven't figured out what to do with them. Hairpins? Do they need eyes? I like how they look nestled on the holly, but my husband said, "Aren't holly berries poisonous?" So, I looked it up and found this funny story: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6982867/ns/us_news-weird_news/

20 year reunion this weekend

but I'm not going because it is too far away. Gordon's was two weeks ago. We both graduated '89.
For his birthday, which is today, I made him this needle-felted coaster with his school mascot.
Gaels Coaster
As much as it pleased me to be making my husband something that I knew he'd appreciate, I admit that I dreaded making something so "uncreative." However, it did help me learn a new skill: putting print onto my projects.
Needlefelting is my "red shoes." I go to bed every night with new project visions dancing in my head, keeping me awake. In the morning they disappear and I regret not staying up all night honoring those visions.

*** Watch this documentary on the ecological issues faced by Iceland, presented by Bjork. It is disturbing and beautiful. http://www.hulu.com/watch/99583/nattura

Nelly is a black lab/ mix we adopted from the Humane Society. We did not name her. We know nothing about her, except she was rescued from a family that had kids and other animals. She was at 2 different shelters for 4 months. She is 11 months old; we've had her for 2 months. Nelly is about the size of me (and growing). She is so wonderful.
