Seed heads are the final stage of a wildflower's season. They dry out, curl up and hold onto their seeds through fall and winter until conditions are right to disperse.

This little beauty was an experiment in making a new type of lid. I really love how it turned out. What would you store in here?

Some bracket fungi live for decades on the same dead tree, slowly decomposing it. They're in no rush. Neither am I, apparently, since I keep making more of these vessels.

A brown wool vase, with 5 bracket mushrooms growing up the side. The vase is filled with twigs.

Prairie wildflowers bloom in waves through summer. What looks like chaos is actually a careful succession, each species timed to its pollinators and the available light.

#Autumn means birch trunks standing bright against the vibrant golds and moody rusts.

#BlueSkyArtShow #wetfelting #artyear
Framed wet felted fiber artwork depicting a birch forest in autumn. White-barked birch trunks stand vertical against a richly textured background of gold, rust, orange, green, and blue tones representing fall foliage and sky. The piece has an impressionistic quality with varied fiber textures creating depth.

Some might see a bunch of muted brown clump of lumps, but if you stop to look at bracket fungi up close, there's real beauty in those layered curves and subtle color shifts. 🍄

#fungifriday #wetfelting #natureinspired #artyear
Two wet felted vessels on a wooden table. Both have textured gray-green surfaces mimicking tree bark with moss, and are adorned with layered tan and cream bracket mushrooms. The left vessel is shorter and rounded with a dark interior; the right is taller and vase-shaped with a cream interior.

🌟 Aurora over the pines. The way those colors move across the sky is intense, all greens and purples shifting against the dark.

Mushroom season's winding down but I'm still thinking about all the fungi I spotted this fall. Felted up some of my favorites here, from delicate inky caps to chunky chanterelles. 🍄

#MushroomMonday #Needlefelting #NatureInspired #ArtYear
Four framed #needlefelted #mushroom artworks displayed on a gray surface. Each piece features different mushroom varieties on mossy forest floor backgrounds with lichen details. Clockwise from top left: pink-capped mushrooms, white inky cap mushrooms with dark gills, a purple and white mushroom pair, and golden chanterelles.

🌻 Black-eyed Susans are one of those flowers that take over late summer fields and roadsides, turning everything golden. This felted piece captures that wild, abundant feeling.

🌳🌳The forest floor is where all the magic happens.
Hidden under leaves, tucked into moss, growing in the quiet spaces.

This collection of felted mushrooms captures those tiny woodland moments, each one its own little world.

💜 Violets don't need much—they show up in the wild edges of gardens, between stones, in places you didn't plan for them.

This felted piece frames them like the garden treasures they are, delicate but tougher than they look.

🍄 Red mushrooms don't show up often in Wisconsin woods, so finding some always feels like stumbling onto something special

These needle felted #FungiFriends capture that little thrill of discovery—the kind that makes you stop mid-hike and just gaze down in wonder.

#RedWed #NatureInspired #ArtYear

🌊 Growing up around the Great Lakes, I find them to be both calming and energizing at the same time, and that's what keeps pulling me back to them.

🩵 This Lake Michigan inspired felted vessel contains a gradient of blues from deep water to clear horizon.

#BlueTue #Wetfelting #FiberArt #ArtYear
Hand-felted spherical vessel with an ombre gradient from deep teal-blue at the base fading to pale blue-white at the top, displayed against a white background.

🩷🧡💙 The real flowers are starting to fade for the season, so I was inspired to start a new series of wool paintings that are bright and #vibrant!
