Another bunny is born!



This little guy will be traveling across the ocean to go live with my niece. It's her birthday in a couple of days she'll be 14! Wow, I can't believe she will be 14 already. She's always had a stuffed toy bunny and a real live bunny as well which she looooooooves. She doesn't know I made this one for her, and I hope she doesn't go on this site to have a look ... so shhhhhhhhh, don't tell her it's coming.

Little handbag/basket and another Nuno Felted Scarf



I made the little bag/basket out of 100% wool and fulled it in the washing machine. I made it to be a basket but it turns out cuter as a small handbag I think. Would be really cute for a little girl to carry her doll or stuffed animal in! I embroidered french knots all around the edge in a very pretty blue cotton thread.

The scarf is another nuno felted one this time in blues, purples and lime green. The fabric is synthetic and is also blue in color. It's wide enough to use as a wrap to put over your shoulders but looks beautiful bunched together around the neck as well. Another one of a kind if you're looking for something nobody else has this is the scarf for you!

Airy turquoise mohair crocheted scarf


If you're looking for a lightweight scarf/wrap you can use during summer but also useful in winter wrapped around your neck a couple of times this very airy beautiful blue/turquoise scarf is what you need. I have another one in my Etsy shop which is the same pattern except I used a ticker mohair yarn in a darker color go and have a peek.

Two peas in a pod!



So my kid wanted to get her hair cut today. It got cut and she likes it so we had to take some pictures of course. Here she is with her new do ... she wanted to have some pictures taken with the dog and voila ... the one on the back steps is just precious ... two peas in a pod for sure. When Wade looked at it he just cracked up and so did she ... this is what she said ... Oh my God ... I look just like my dog!!!! I couldn't resist sharing this with everybody, I crack up every time I look at it ... The dog really looks likes he's being choked, just the look in his eyes are cheer terror, maybe he's just not happy with Sofie's hair cut ... "she's really starting to look more and more like me!" (that's the dog thinking!)

Meet "Ducky"



So here he is ... all fixed up and ready to find himself a home! I had fun making this little guy. Wasn't too sure how he was going to turn out when I decided to needle felt real feathers on him. At first I thought he was going to have a "bad hair day" but then I decided he actually looked like he's still growing into his coat so I left him that way. Now his little bottom turned out too cute I think, he looks handsome from the front AND the back! hehe Anyway, I ended up having to put wooden skewers into his legs up through his chest to make him stand and not flop over so next time I will be using a wire frame instead. Now lets hope he finds himself a nice new home.
