I finally got around to doing what I bought the drum carder for in the first place: scrap batts! I've been saving up roving scraps (which is sort of a silly word since you don't usually have scraps unless you force yourself to set a little aside) and figured it was time to put 'em all together. These are for sale at Twisted, but I hope to do more for etsy soon (but if you really love one, you can call the shop and they can mail it :-) They might make it into the web store too eventually, I'm not sure.) I think I need to wear a dust mask, though... my lungs are still recovering. Ugh.
"Pumpking"
"Stegosaurus Dreamin'"
"The Fresher"
"Elementary"
"Deep" (last one named, I was getting tired at that point)
"Plastic Trollop" (exploding my red sensors apparently.)
"Razzle"
"Retro"
"Scrapplejacks"
And a before shot:
Hooray! It's fun getting to name things again, haha.
oooo, they are so pretty, and i even just spent an entire evening with them...some of them are already spoken for. suddenly everyone at the shop has this new and pressing urge to learn to spin :-)
ReplyDeletelove 'em! i want to spin the first one especially though.
ReplyDeleteI was drooling over Retro the other day when I was in the shop... love them all! Makes me want a carder so badly!
