Its been quite a summer already. I spent the first part interning for a lovely group of women who put on Urban Craft Uprising here in Seattle. I kept my fingers exercised (blogging) and my legs in good shape (riding my bike around the city handing out promotional materials). And there has been no shortage of fantastic camping and hiking.
Art has taken the back burner while I figure myself out and go with the flow. But I usually take a large side of laziness with my introspection. Hence, my blog silence.
The other day, though, I sat down with a monster of a summer cold and did some needle felting. I’ve been seeing these geometric panel necklaces flying all over the internet. They really feel like something new on the scene to me. I like their retro feel as well. So, I did a little experimenting and found that I liked how they looked in felt in addition to the standard embroidery they come in.

I didn’t plan on it, but I think I will get a chain for at least one of these. If they aren’t the comfiest necklaces to rest upon my decolletage!
Happy Summer guys!
