House Building

Fresh from the hoop--the finished front, ready to be trimmed into shape.
Beloved honeycomb/green fabric for the back, plus the essential gross grain ribbon.
The profile--I'm swooning a little over the combo of this pale robin's egg linen and that perfect grassy-green.
Ready to hang (or to ship to Courtney and her bird-loving, sweet-faced baby)!

Oh how lovely! I've finally made the big step of buying some 100% wool felt on the internet, I'm so inspired by what you do, it's simply beautiful! Wish me luck ;-)
A quick question actually, do you usually just cut things out, or do you draw on the felt first? And if so, what do you use, chalk? Thanks for your help!!

Sorry for the delay, but just wanted to say that we received it and love it! Huge hit with my 14 month-old too (though am trying to keep her lovely little paws off it if possible). Thanks again! Love your work.
