A little story in pictures.

No child but must remember laying his head in the grass, staring into the infinitesimal forest and seeing it grow populous with fairy armies. ~Robert Louis Stevenson

My Instagram

This little collection of three needle felted toadstools sit hidden away in antique sewing table drawers. They were inspired by the beautiful warm colours of autumn, and can sit on a table or be hung on the wall.
You can see more photos on my blog 🍂
They will be in my shop this evening at 9PM (ADT) ✨

I’m afraid I’ve become a little addicted to making these fellows. I think it’s the rather hypnotic task of stitching hundreds of French knots 🍂 and those rich autumn colours 🍁

The Autumn faeries are moving in. You can spot them on chilly mornings, going about the trees and fields of goldenrod, with tiny silk cocoon satchels slung over their backs, gathering acorn caps and other autumn treasures 🍂🍁
