Pedestrian Arts Fair / Feira no Pedestrian Arts

Just a quick note on the Craft Fair organised by Pedestrian Arts in Leicester. A nice venue with lots of people passing through. Above are some images of my wares (lots of sun as you can see). Had the fantastic help of Agata in the morning and then Maia in the afternoon. Thanks girls!

So uma palavrinha sobre a Feira de Artesanato organizada por Pedestrian Arts. Foi um dia agradavel com muita gente a passar. Acima estao imagens do meu cantinho (imenso sol como podem ver). Tive a ajuda e companhia da Agata, de manha, e de tarde a da Maia. Obrigada meninas!

Just finished! Acabadinhos!

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.

Estas forras sao individualmente feitas a partir de la reciclada. Os tecidos sao tricotados e felpados por mim antes de os cortar e aplicar as decoracoes (com tecidos previamente feitos por mim) e bordados.

 

I found a whole lot of old wool in my storage box.
I made these little monsters by knitting them and fulling them in my washing machine. All the embroidery is done with wool and the buttons are vintage buttons that I found.
My next batch of soft toys are sort of a kind of cat. Will post the photos when ready.
