A Goat?

Nadine brought over another character to visit. I'm not joking, the eyes follow you where ever you move to. A sleeve from an old jumper is her dress, dyed doily for her cape, very old blanketing dyed for arms, legs and ears. If she was my Gran, I would definitely wash behind my ears when told.

Etsy Treasury

Atlantis was picked for a treasury in Etsy Thank you to HippyBliss.
Thought I would put up a pic of Ergl, another Kookie Kritter. Needle felted wet felt. If that makes sense. The felt base was wet felted but it was a bit thin so I needle felted embellishments on to thicken it and used buttonhole stitch around the edge. The antennae are formed from a failed felted bangle. The face is based on a drawing my teenager did.

Finishing off day

Verdigris for Dale.


Chicken finally finished, unlikely to lay anything edible.


I enjoyed using lime velvet dyed by Rae to embellish the chook.


Just working it out, this was a hand dyed blanket offcut.

As promised, the chicken is done! Just realized, making soft toys is my least favorite sewing thing.
Mixed into finishing this chicken was a quick dyeing job for Dale from The Thread Studio. This is her new commissioned colour from me called Verdigris. I think I have had four goes at getting this one right, and I am still not sure. There were so many possibilities. Anyway, it's dry and about to go out in the mail.
