OUTWITTED

He drew a circle that shut me out-
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle that took him in!!
(Edwin Markham 1852-1940)

A 'n' M (A Natural Mystic)

Ugg! I don't think I'll be decorating any more dresses in the near future...........I'm absolutely beat!!!This one in particular gave me a really hard time because I first had to needle felt front and back and then wet felt. I feel like I've been run over by a truck!!! It came out a bit "heavy" since I had to layer on the wool quite thick for it to incorporate into my crochet dress but it looks pretty. Oh well, at least I can get a cheap work out carrying all that weight on a tread mill!!!!

 Wensleydale locks, satin leaves, a silk /tulle flower for embellishment............
Pink cotton crochet dress and a mix of merino/silk roving....................



 It's a beautiful fairy tale......................


 And we all love a good fairy tale once in a while.............


.......................to escape the harsh/hard slap of our ugly reality....................
