Mother Earth and the Flower Children

I have just finished making this Mother Earth and her dear flower-children.  I used wool I gently washed and dyed myself.  The colours are from the earth - rosehips, hawthorns, red cabbage, tea, blackerries, and carrot tops.

    Oh Kelly, they are so beautiful!! I definately think you should open an Etsy shop and sell all these beautiful treasures that you make and all your lovely wool that you spin. Really beautiful.....

    So, so beautiful. Isn't naturally-dyed wool the best? I love these. :)
