Okay, I have almost made it through my pile of greasy fleeces, only another 40kg to go.......I kind of feel like Popeye because it is real physical labour to shift and carry those washed wet fleeces around, and I wonder if my muscle mass has already increased without having eaten tons of spinach!! But the good news is that the freshly washed and sorted Romney Kent fleece is also now for sale in my ebay store. It is just as gorgeous as the last lot I had that sold out about 3 weeks ago. I have decided to sell all the new fleeces in 50g lots so people can actually do a mix and match and not end up with huge amounts of wool they may never need for their projects.

Today I would like to introduce Nicola and her absolutely adorable needle felted teddy bears. Nicola makes them herself, and you can see the love and attention to detail put into these little woolly creatures. Some of them get lovely dresses and shoes too, and because they are really so beautiful to look at I have decided to display them in my ebay fibre art gallery, which you are very very welcome to view at any time at http://stores.ebay.co.uk/NEEDLEWORKS-PLEASURE/FIBRE-ART-GALLERY.html, and also here on my blog because not all photos could go into the gallery. So here they are, and just so you know folks, Nicola also sells the bears and makes them by custom order too! Most of them are made of pure Merino wool. Have a look :

So, what do you think? They are just A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E, aren't they? Nicola hasn't got a website yet but if you would like to know more about her teddies or place a custom order you can reach her at [email protected]  She may even have some new ones out that you can purchase right away ;o)

I will now go and sit down in my armchair and .... just.... do nothing.... oooooohhhh what a thought!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :oD
