Felt Bag From Russia With Love

I loved a lot making this bag and now I felted a similar one (with more green) for two exhibitions in Moscow. But I forgot taking pictures of it except some details. Sometimes in December I will get it back... :-)
Bye bye bag and have a nice trip!

Dialogue

CorNit: - Sunshine. Colors. Fibers. Children. Blackbirds. Piece. Warmness. Bliss.

Peter: - Sunshine. Colors. Fibers. Children. Blackbirds. Piece. Warmness. Bliss. What is this?????????

CorNit: - Nothing concrete. Good sentiments. An antipole to bad news. A lasting fingerprint of a moment of happiness.

Felted wall bag

The wall bag is laying in the snow.

It's sleeping...hush!

In it's dream it hangs in the garden of the stone dragon...

Enchanted plants grow there.

Gemstones glitter between the leafs.

The stone dragon is sleeping as well.

Until it will be awakened from that stone life.

Sometimes even dragons can get bewitched...

Little Felt Box

Grandmothers smell like grandmothers what you perceive while they are reading fairy tales.

Grandmothers hair turns white...

Grandmothers always listen when you have a problem.

Grandmothers sometimes only say one short sentence but that will grow in your heart and mind forever.

Grandmothers have doilies or some lace on their undershirt.

Grandmothers hide pearl jewelry in a small box.

Grandmothers do handcraft.

You never forget Grandmother...

"Grandmother's Whisper" that's how I call this felt box.

Felted Bag from Atlantis

A little bag to wear with jeans or the little black dress.

I wanted to loose myself in surface structures and the shades of blue, green and turquoise.

Different self dyed fabrics and yarns and fibres combined with free stitching.

You can go fishing or if you're vegetarian just help yourself at the kelp-buffet.

Can you feel the likable cool, turquoise water surrounding you?

And do you see the sunbeams under the water?

All around fluctuation, light, glimmer and all the same calming silence...

Felted Bag With Gipsy Style

That's how it can look like if I stitch until my fingers get sore...

But I don't like using thimbles.

The length of the strap is adjustable.

It's a 2 in 1 bag.

In Germany some said that the free stitching looks so hungarian. I told them they are gipsy motifs. And gipsy culture is not hungarian culture!

Gipsies have their own tradition in Hungary and every other lands they live in the world. They even say that they are gipsies living in Hungary and not hungarian.

In Hungary there are many different kinds of free embroidery. One very famous is the style of the city Kalocsa (say Kalotsha). That kind of free stitching has colors like the gipsy's hand craft but the floral design is absolutely different. (On the photo you see a traditional costume from Kalocsa.)

The moving felt rug

If felt grows directly on your body weather seems not to be a reason for complaining :-D
That animal is a puli .
