One more thing...

I also finished a horse!


Little Mouse!

Ok... I have made... a mini mouse! HAHA! This is a smaller version of my large mouse... because I just felt he needed to be smaller... so while the old one stands 12 inches tall, this one stands 6 inches tall.

He stands on his own and is poseable... and now I feel I need an army of them! XD

Fruits of the Weekend

Once again, I had a fairly productive weekend. I had some swap stuff to get done (although I never got a picture of the mice :( ) and then I made a pin as well :)

First up is going to be a pair of mice I got in the Mouse Swap from the very talented Vivian!

THEY ARE SO CUTE!



Next is the swap piece I made for Skunkboy's swap:

The girl I got liked more vintage things, so I made them from the wool sweaters, and she also said she liked birds and dogs... so... a white dog with a rainbow bird!


Closeup of the bird:


Dog by itself (the dog also has a wool felted flower pendant and the red ribbon around its neck is removeable):


Next is the pin I made, called Love Bug (go figure):


Finally, something a little random... I collect dolls... not avidly, I don't have a million of them... but I have a few. When I was a child, dolls creeped me out... generally I still don't like them much, but something about a few brands out now don't creep me out at all. In fact, I think they're beautiful. One such doll is the Volks YoSD Chinatsu. For a while, I had quite a lot of Volks YoSDs, but I always loved the Chinatsu best, so much so that I actually have 2 of them... here is a picture of one of them. Maybe you can see why I like her, maybe you can't... I have no problem with people who don't like dolls! But I love taking pictures of them:

Glee Scrabble Tile Charms and a picture for Barbara

Ok... I LOVE Scrabble Tile Charms... they are fun to make and let's face it, I just love covering stuff in gloss. :)



And Barbara, here's a picture of one of my Pullips sporting a current Barbie outfit that is out in the US... do you guys have this one there, it's part of a 3 pack witht owls in it! (I will take a pic of the other two pieces tomorrow!)

Thank You, Tubby Teddies!

I've been struggling with making myself a small bear pattern... so I figured I must be doing something wrong.

So I ordered a tiny bear pattern from Catherine Gabriel of Tubby Teddies and made the 2 inch 'Baby Bear'... so this little red bear comes from that pattern!

I can't believe I made something so small... and now I'm going to need to figure out my own pattern!!! AAAAAAAAH!


I can haz coffeez?


Pardon my fingernail with the crazy nailpolish, but it's there for size reference :)

A few things done over the weekend

I got a few things sewn over the weekend, one of which I'll show tomorrow since I wanted it to have it's own post since I used someone else's pattern and wanted to credit them :)

First up is a very pink bear I made named... uhm... well, he doesn't have a name:






Next is a Spool Bot, named Cupcake ;) :




Then there is a Ferret named Finnius:



Finally there is a white bat... named... SHAKAKA! (to be said loudly with exclamation on end):

Rainbow Mouse is Angry...

He's like a grumpy old man!

He'll be getting a vest, maybe some glasses to perch on his long nose, etc... but I thought I'd share these pics (I love that these mice stand on their own and are fairly poseable!):

So Grumpy! Sheesh...



These next two just show how his tail is poseable:


He just wants it all to go away. He's very bitter.
