LOVE CHILD Poncho and more....




India cotton gauze nuno felted and embellished with sari silk ribbon.... It slips over the head as a poncho....or over the hips as a short wrap for leggings......The waistband has ties to adjust larger or smaller.....A Rosiewildwoman original creation.....


The Scarf that Rebelled


The Scarf.....carded merino wool nuno felted on silk chiffon.  I must have draped this a million times before I took the picture.  EAch time....I hated it.....It is short, that's ok, it is lighter than any work I have done....Thank is GREAT......it felted tightly.... nice.....but no how, no way could I get it to lay the way I wanted it to....In exasperation.....I twisted and turned it and pinned it with a custom pin I felted and plopped it on my head.....


 Voila.....the Scarf that Rebelled and Became a Rosiewildwoman creation for the head......

Continuing the Ocean Blue theme




Rosiewildwoman doing the Happy Dance

Will be posting a video of Rosiewildwoman doing the happy dance.....I finally understand laying the wool down fine and then the material on top in layers, adding tencel, adding bamboo, adding the kitchen sink and then felting into incredible thin texture......I see soooooooo many possibilities with this, hats, scarves, wraps, vests, ponchos, wall hangings.......and the list goes on......


just the beginning of a beautiful relationship

buried glass pin closure

texture, texture, everywhere.....

light not my usual heavy laying down because I can not see....I had this same problem(not being able to see) with glass torching until I let it be what it wanted to be which definitely was not "a round bead"  With the wool, the truth of myself came when I dared to not see......the light laying of the wool and just knowing it was there.....sort of like my faith in God, salvation and eternal life......

..Rosiewildwoman art to wear.......did I say.....I am sooooo happy.......

Happy Valentine's Day from Rosiewildwoman

art yarn spun, crocheted and embellished into
"Wild for YOU" neckware....

QUEEN OF THE GYPSIES

the vest

the make-over
WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU CREATE SOMETHING AND IT BUGS YOU??? YOU DWELL ON IT FOR AWHILE AND THEN you recreate and get rid of the bug.....Queen of the Gypsies was born from a nuno felted vest that I did not like....the nuno felting I LOVED, the vest was another story....So....it got a make-over...and there is enough material left for a halo hat, another neck wrap and more....where will the muse take me????

Fiber Mixologist Continues on with Felting

 laying out the wool....no rhyme, no reason, no specific layers, it all just evolved as I went....I did not plan to put the pink-green and yellow on it just seemed right....I know I should be more precise and methodical but if I did that....I would not create......I do not want methodical....I want serendipity......and it happens.....
Mixing and spinning fibers....Now I am mixing colors and fabric and examining how them come out when wet felted.  Every project is one step closer to understanding the magic of wool.....Taking it slow and easy and playing with the wool.....I like the way the colors blended....but....I still have not found "MY" scarf yet.....The one that speaks to me over and over and has a life of it's own no matter how I put it on.... That design will come.....sometime and I will know it when it does.....So....will just keep felting on.....Rosiewildwoman Art to Wear.....
