FAA Show & Tell

Fiber Arts Alliance is always inspiring

even when challenging weather causes

sparse attendance. 

Ann knitted and felted this wonderful purse and

even though she didn't like how the chenille yard

didn't felt, the consensus was that it added

fun interest.

See the zipper closure/decoration on this
fun loop scarf made from ribbed fabric.
Great accent piece.

Red Felted Wool Purse From Vest

 Once I was over the hurdle of actually cutting into

this beautiful although too small  accidentally felted vest

 I chose to reuse the front zipper for the top

of my purse.

I added a lining, a strap and embellished the front. 

Accidentally Felted Vest To Purse

In considering creating a new red purse, I remembered this wonderful red accidentally wood felted vest was gifted to me.  Stay tuned.



No More Growing Purse Strap

After one day of using this fun new

purse created from an

unexpected wool vest,

 the strap "grew" several inches.

Opening up the strap and inserting the 

shirt placket from a discarded

men's shirt inside

should keep it from further growing.
