sudden squall —
I search for the right colour
wool

balloons
the many shapes
of a cure

toy factory …
the polar bear cub’s
dark side

rainy Sunday
the espresso maker babbles
and spurts

filling in
the missing parts …
random thoughts

(The felting image is work in progress)
hour by hour
the day gathers pace . . .
falling petals

waiting
for his felted bear …
the house cat

morning routine
the way I put myself
together

designing
a wildflower meadow –
night thoughts

wet felted bowl on the windowsill drying
day’s end
the white sail
out of sight

sketching …
the moon behind
the trees

round earth
the attraction
of opposites

haikufeltings: images of haiku combined with feltings
old fort
the meaning of words
I do not know

petal by petal
undoing
spring

cycles of innocence
the best way to stack logs
by the fire

Passion Week
we learn about
renewal

family buzz
the baby smiles
in her sleep

longing
in the seagulls’ caws
white on white

work in progress—
through the mists a door
to another world

hollow sound
of the ripe seed pod—
life cycles

morning sun …
before the shadows
fall into place

silver threads …
teasing apart
the essentials

on the trail . . .
one hundred ways of saying
I do
#The100DayProject is a global art project encouraging everyone to participate in 100 days of making. It starts on April 2nd, 2019.
“The great surrender is the process; showing up day after day is the goal. For the 100–Day Project, it’s not about fetishizing finished products—it’s about the process.”
For details about the project take a look here
Briefly:1—sign up for the newsletter. 2—find and follow the facilitator on Instagram . 3—choose a theme: you commit to be engaging with it every day and posting on Instagram the result. 4—announce your project on Instagram. Tag your announcement with #The100DayProject so that all of your posts will cluster together, and you can find easily the other participants’ posts.

2019 will be my second year. Last year, for my theme I chose: #100daysnewthings. Each day, I searched for, and found, something new to me. ‘It’ may have been an interesting quotation, a piece of information, a discovery or re-discovery, a haiku or other poem, something I hadn’t noticed before…
It proved to be a challenge but also a blessing. The practice expanded my curiosity, widened my horizons. And not long after the project finished, I discovered felt making! Half of this year’s theme: #haikufeltings. A felting with a haiku every day for 100 days!
It is not going to be easy, and it may take me longer, but I am ready for the challenge. I know it will benefit my creative practice, it will feed my muse . . .

For week 7 of the weekly challenge I wet-felted a cat cave. I may have to widen the opening for my cats to get in, I’ll see how Emile and Jacobo deal with it.
At the moment Jacobo is afraid of the cave, approaches it slowly, carefully, and then retreats walking backwards.

the laughter, the bonding,
the love

the ‘laughing’ or the ‘laughter’ thinking about this . . .
Wet felting is a hands-on craft. With warm water, olive soap, a rolling pin, bubble wrap, and a lot of pressure on the wool fibres, I create fabric.

For week 5 of the #weeklywatercolourchallenge, where I contribute weekly felted projects, I felted a pair of mittens!
