Fibrefusion Books, Softsculpt, & Felting Pen

Yay - it’s a great week for deliveries! We have received our new stock of Fibrefusion books:
Beyond Boundaries
Encrustation
Evolutions
On Form
Raise a toast, the long-sought-after Softsculpt is here!
Last but not least we also have a new and nifty Felting Pen, which just happens to go very well with our currently on sale Spiral Dyed Merino Wool.

Fibrefusion books pre-order

On Form by Fibrefusion

We will be ordering Fibrefusion books next week, but before we do we’d like to offer a pre-order opportunity. Normally each time we order the price goes up a bit - changing dollar values, shipping increases - all pre-orders will be available at the current price. The books available for this offer are:

BEYOND BOUNDARIES
ENCRUSTATION
EVOLUTIONS
ON FORM

Your card will not be charged until the book is shipped to you, the books usually take a couple weeks to arrive, so we’re looking at probably the end of October. If you order other items with the book(s), everything will ship together (if you need things quicker just place a separate order).

Another tidbit: we have fixed the spam problem with our contact page with a simple email link. If I ever figure out captcha stuff I’ll be able to put the nifty form back up.


A New Year

On Form by Fibrefusion

Finally, here's the goods on the new good: Fibrefusion's new book, ON FORM
Fibrefusion is pauline Verrinder's advnced textile exhibiting group based in Cambridge England. The group has authored three previous books, BEYOND BOUNDARIES, ENCRUSTATION, and EVOLUTIONS.

ON FORM is a stitcher's workbook on sculptural textiles, the size is about 22 cm x 22 cm and is spiral bound (making it so easy to leave open on your work table). For those familiar with the previous Fibrefusion books, it similar in format to those but with a crisper, contemporary feel. It has 56 pages and many color photographs. It's not a textile recipe book, but rather an idea jumping off point, allowing for your own original ideas to shine through.

Fibrefusion books have arrived!

Just a quick to note to let everyone know that the Fibrefusion books arrived on my doorstep (on a Sunday morning no less!). I'll get photos and a description of the new ON FORM later. Also in the shipment are BEYOND BOUNDARIES, ENCRUSTATION and EVOLUTIONS.

Happy Holidays to all!

These are Korknisse, wine corks with a knitted costume, along with a knitted/crocheted mushroom I made up myself. The gnome pattern is found at the fabulous Saartje Knits site - check it out!

It looks as if our Fibrefusion shipment will not be here in time for the holidays. I will post here as soon as it does arrive, and it really should be here soon. Sorry Santa!

We will be closed December 23 - Jan 2. We will be accepting orders during this time, but it is highly unlikely that they will ship before the new year... but, if the Fibrefusion shipment does arrive during this time there may be one or two days where I'll be able to get some orders out. I'm crossing my fingers, as I'm very excited about their new book "On Form".

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Fibrefusion books!

I've had quite a few requests for the new Fibrefusion book "On Form". I have an order in for the book and hopefully it will be here shortly (I can't wait!) along with more of their previous publications "Beyond Boundaries" "Encrustation" and "Evolutions". Watch this space for details...
