Threads That Dance.





I have been playing today with different ideas.
Here are a few of the brooches I have made.
I like movement in my work and that has inspired my dancers.
I will try and add the orange tree brooch to etsy today.
The wool is a rich purple blue, it compliments the orange so well.
I now must brave the ice winds to walk the dog!

I love the brooches. Playing about with materials and patterns is such fun - they all show me that you enjoy it.

I think the fact that you enjoy it shows in your work - the vibrancy just wouldn't be there if you found it a chore.

I have just seen one dancer on Flickr. And I love the one with the moon in the background.

Oh yes - dancing! I felt from the first time I saw your work that there was so much movement but for some reason dancing didn't occur to me! I feel it... Even your trees are dancing!
