knit Love Club Secret 'Owl' Swap Reveal

The Knit Love Club has a secret swap running that involves making an owl as that is the emblem of the club. I managed to arrange to meet up with my recipient at Knit Nation yesterday and handed over the following package of makes:

My 'Odds and Ends kerchief' which I shall now get round to writing up as a free pattern. I incorporated odd pieces of the yarns that were left over from the socks we've been making in the club.

A ceramic owl in a knitted & felted nest

A badge derived from the Knit Love emblem

And some silkscreened cards along with some other bits and pieces.

It was great fun making it all and handing it over.... roll on the next swap!

Another Little Bird

This is one of my mixed media pieces. I'm rather disappointed that you can't see the surfaces in a photograph, it's a lot richer in the flesh. At some point I'll try and explain the way I work, but this is a mix of processes including collage, paint and silkscreen print. It's part of a little group of images that I'm making, but this is the first to emerge to a near finished state.
