Keeping up the momentum

The exhibition is upon us!   I will be spending all day there tomorrow; today we’ve been at the Mansion House, St. Helens, for a craft fair.   It was a good day, lots of lovely comments!  
Apparently, the exhibition has been well received with a steady flow of people coming to look at it.  I shall be able to judge its success better after spending the day there tomorrow.  Then there’ll be  the task of taking it down and returning all the prints to their rightful owners. 
On the craft front, I’ve been pushing on – mostly with felt book/diary covers, I’ve made quite a few now and I’m ready to move on to something else.  I’ve also made a few brooches – I think Winter is the season for brooches, people like them to brighten up their Winter coats.  
This week, I’ve been quite adventurous and self –indulgent!   I’ve made myself a felt hat – the first time I’ve tried a hat,  and it was quite daunting.   The completed item (well, almost completed) has quite a high crown and an asymmetrical brim – it doesn’t look half bad.  I haven’t decided yet whether to decorate it and, if so, with what.   Who knows I might have a photo of it soon – I might have photos of a lot of things soon – that’s one task I’ve neglected for weeks – must try harder.
