Ann Wood created this for the Whiplash Yarn Challenge. She offered it up in a raffle and I was the lucky winner! Her original post and a follow up How To. The quality of her work is really phenomenal. Every piece of the construction is perfectly executed. What a treat to receive something so beautiful. No Oak trees in sight so it’s sitting pretty in a Vine Maple. I grew up in Missouri along with thousands of Oak trees. Having this little acorn in my studio conjures up very fond childhood memories of collecting and playing with these wonderfully perfect nuts. Thank you Ann!

Do you think you could use a bit of spray starch or stiffener in that first layer to help firm the fabric? Or would this be really nasty. This is so cool.
