I have been really busy this week making accessories, brooches, hair slides, earrings, scarfs, and experimenting with new ideas and fibres. The necklace you can see to the top left is a nuno felted bohemian shabby vintage style, if that style exists. It fastens with antique mother of pearl buttons dated from the 1930's, glass seed beads and swarovski crystals. The scarfette to the bottom right was nuno felted with linen noil, bamboo, angora, cashmere, vicuna, possum, merino and tussah silk. I wanted to try out all of the new fibres on one piece so that i could test how they work with nuno felting. It is a lovely scarfette. I will take better pictures in the morning and list the items in the Bazaar.
The rest of my One World One Heart prizes arrived. The felted cushion (which is much more beautiful than the photo shows) was made by Gabriella of Threadheads Anonymous. The cushion was Gabriella's first felt project and she has done a wonderful job. The art cards were a gift from Barbara at Barbs Garden, and the mushroom guide, heart brooch and paper doll were a gift from Emily of the Edge Gallery. Thank you all, I will be popping all of my thank you cards in the post tomorrow :)
My daughter really loved the doll and the brooch and has spent all week end making her own (with a little assistance from her grown up helpers).I would like to quickly introduce you to some of the other wonderful blogs I that have encountered on my carpet ride.

What is vicuna fiber like? I think I saw some of them when I was travelling around South America?
WOW Lucky you Jasmine, so many prizes! You will not be allowed to enter next year =-). The scarflet is gorgeous...How fun to experiment with all those fibers.
Beautiful! And I fear I'm coveting the hair slides...
Dear Jasmine~ how truly splendid your new creations are! I adore your gypsyesque necklace and the small tree brooch! And what wonderful gifts you received - please tell your daughter that her doll creations are marvelous, too.
I gasped delightedly when I scrolled down and saw my 'Timekeeper' piece! Thank you SO much, Jasmine. I am honored to see her there in the company of these two fantastical dolls!
You've been really very busy, Jasmine. I love the necklace, and especially that you used these antique buttons in it.
