Corrie Balk (well known felt maker from Netherland) asks for photos for an article she has been asked to write about me and my book ANIMAL FELT for the German magazine Ornamenten (Handwerken zonder Grenzen).
The big German wool firm "Seehawer and Siebert" are making a new catalogue (the last one was so good so it became a collect object). They ask for 5 certain photos from my book ANIMAL FELT that they want to use in their new catalogue.
Message from my editor, that a Danish Magazine has used 5 of my new books EASY FELT as prize in a competition.

Wonderfull surprice. I got a parcel from Japan and in it was the finest book published of a Japanese felt-friend Leiko Uchiyama, who I met years ago in Lenzen (Germany).
Both of us were invited to work in a project there. We kept contact for many years and I have got wonderfull parcels from Japan during the years and sent parcels to Leiko. She married a French man and lived in Paris some years.
Now it was long time ago since we had been in contact, and it was so nice to get parcel from Japan again, where Leiko had moved back to again.
Leiko is a very good felt-maker and the photos in her book shows her beautifull designs that are very Japanese and very expressive. She has published the book herself.

There is something funny but also very nice about an owl, and needle felting it gives a special opportunity of using some of all the types of wool that I have gathered. For this owl I have used 8 different types of stables and it is so exciting to see how the different texture in the stables can be used to give the right expression. Every owl becomes different and using both course and fine wool works perfect.

Yesterday I delievered an order that I have worked on since Christmas.
Before Christmas, a family came to my studio with a bag full of musk-oxen wool and asked me if I would make one or two musk-oxen for them. They had lived in Greenland years ago and now, they newly travelled to Greenland together with their grown up children and they had picked the wool in the nature together with them.
The first musk-oxen |
