Coaster Punched - a few animals...


Some punching I did for playing with yarns/wools and embellished glitter :)

Simple backing with felt for a coaster style about 4 or 5 " square (yes they are square just taking picture is not)...




More of a Mola type (turn your head or think of the poor fish diving down lol)
 

Funky OWL needs eye beads :)

and just a coffee or tea break time one....
varigated yarn on background

Punch Time - Coasters and just having fun with different thread types (unfinished)


Had so much fun with the funky salamanders ... although the first one looks flattened or flying and the 2nd one is swimming, do salamanders swim??

These all in need of embellished eyes with beads still!  :)  




My Favourite showing a Cat by itself then with a friend :)

Coaster for your desk and any time of the day...

Coasters for Christmas - Punched

I found a nice glittery yarn which made me think of a winter night... I like the affect when punched.
Backed to black felt. 4"x4"

Poppy Pin - Punched "In Remembrance .... lest we forget"

:) I was motivated so much by a Poppy rug posting on a Facebook group< I set out to make my own version and now no longer will I lose my Poppy! :)

In Remembrance .... lest we forget

To note:  I will always continue to give donations to our poppy boxes, and in fact will add a purchased Poppy to my own poppy each year (it will pin nicely to the back of my own pin, no longer dropping anywhere and all over unbeknownst to me and littering...)

A few Russian Punch Needle pieces

The swirling leaves are designed by Sybil Mercer (Mom)... Finished with a leather backing glued on with white glue and pressed with books.
The Molas are from the article by Iris Simpson in A Needle Pulling Thread magazine from 2012 and adapted for russian punch needle.  They will actually be mounted on a black painted canvas block ... and I have 4 of them completed.
Charles Rennie Mackintosh - adapted version below
Then from the Miriam Miller book, I converted the design provided for hooking and did my version in punch :)
