Needle Felt Love

Crazy as it seems....I had never heard of needle felting until "No" began waldorf school!? I feel a little ripped off as I was the 6 year old embroidery queen and learned to knit at 8 (never progressed beyond doll blankets sadly) I probably would have liked it. Anyway I have several talented needle felter friends and as I have zero aptitude for it, I look to them to fufill my felted needs.



These beauties are just a sample of what the hands of my fibre artist friend LaLa can do. I'm very excited because she is creating a piece just for me! Yay!

LaLa hails from Nova Scotia and can take credit for dubbing me "SilliCon"...I changed the "i" to a "y" for optimum numerology (and to decrease the association with breast implants).

I love her work, it is very reflective of her colourful soul, and so energetic it makes me vibrate, she is one of the most inspiring peole I know. You can have the pleasure of experiencing LaLa and her wares in many Nova Scotia galleries and the Wolfville Farmers Market. Check her out!
