Hot water bottle covers / Forras para botijas de agua quente
These covers are individually made from recycled wool. I knit and felt the fabrics before cutting and applying the decorations ( with other wool felted previously made by me) and top stitching.

The Knighton Lane Artists Group has it's last collective exhibition at the LCB Depot, Leicester (not it's last event of this year though).
The name "Bitesize" came as a challenge for all artists: to do artwork in small size. The work present ranges from ceramics and wire sculpture to painting, textiles, drawings, carvings and printing.
I'll post the pictures as soon as I get them.
The exhibition is in place until the end of November.
