So lovely to be here on BlueSky! For my first post, here’s some #fungi I’ve needle felted. All formed from soft, fluffy wool fibres which I’ve repeatedly poked with a needle (hundreds of times) trying to recreate the unique shape & details of these incredible species.
Hope you like them☺️

Lighting up the hedgerow, a spectacular crop of haws on this Hawthorn bush for the #fruits challenge. I do love these, not only are they a glorious candy red but I always think they resemble perfect teeny toffee apples! 🍎😀
#Wildflowerhour
The glorious red fruits of the Hawthorn look even more spectacular when en masse. Each haw is a beautiful candy red and I always think they look like perfect teeny toffee apples! 🍎

The butterfly has been lovingly created from fluffy wool fibres and painstakingly shaped over many hours by repeatedly stabbing with a needle.

Lazy Sunday of #botany. Making #herbarium #specimens and watching the West Wing. At least until the power goes out with this storm.

Gotta get ready for spring craft fair season. And I need to get these all listed on my #etsy but I don't wanna...

A table worth a stack of pressed plants waiting to be mounted. In the foreground are two mounts: Mertensia virginica and Polypodium formosanum. In the background sits a copy of the Plants of Pennsylvania as a weight on a stack of cardboard spacers.

Middle left, white wood anemones with yellow centers. Middle right, purple sweet violets in close-up. Bottom left, another cluster of White Wood Anemones.

Wood sorrel has long been associated with St. Patrick, who is alleged to have used the plant's trifoliate leaves to illustrate the Holy Trinity.☘️Also known as "cuckoo bread" as it was believed that cuckoos ate it to strengthen their voices & also as the “alleluia plant" for its Easter bloom. 💚
A felt Wood Sorrel plant completely made from fluffy wool fibres. Each leaf is made up of three separate apple-green leaflets and the five white petals are delicately striped.

The beautifully scented Sweet Violet, Viola odorata was once synonymous with Mothering Sunday & small posies were gifted by children to their mothers. This little felt violet has a spur & rounded sepals at the back of the flower💜
