home sweet home

Ferrit went for a visit home to see her family and some friends, and thought it was the perfect opportunity to fossick some more stuff. She discovered lots of interesting things tucked away in old boxes at home, and also went for a scavenge in the local second hand shops.

She found.....

Ferrit's favourites were two pictures she got from one of the second hand shops

Ferrit's Day Out

Ferrit had her very first market adventure at the Love Handmade Craft Market in the weekend. It was a good day, and she meet some really nice people with some very crafty ideas.







Ferrit knew she had a busy few weeks ahead of her getting ready for the upcoming markets.

from the garden

Ferrit loved the roses in her garden so much she did some drawings of them and made them into a screen print. She decided to make them into a little soft flower bunch that would last for ages and never need watering.

all those loose threads

Ferrit made some more brooches and pendants but this time left all the loose threads attached. She liked the weird messy look and was going to make some more, she thought maybe next time some with different coloured cottons.

Roar!

Ferrit discovered some old leopard print fabric that had been hiding away in one of her material bins. She had an idea........

............a family of leopard print dolls

Ferrit finished making some more soft brooches too

Fluro-tastic

The other day Ferrit found some fluorescent yellow thread lurking in one of her drawers. She got a bit excited and made a series of soft jewellery pieces.

some brooches

and some necklaces

Ferrits favourites were the rosary pendant and the best friends brooches

busy times

The last few days had been really busy for Ferrit and she had made lots of new things. She made herself a little inspiration board of all her ideas for future crafting endeavors

Ferrit had done lots of drawings over the past few days which she made into some screenprints. She printed the drawings onto different fabrics she had rummaged from her material bins and made them into new pieces of soft jewellery and other objects

Ferrit hoped the next couple of days were going to be of the productive sort as she knew she had a lot to do and many crafty tasks to complete.
