Snowman needlefelted and needfelted bear


Meet Snowy the snow man and Peaches the bear! my two latest critters that I've needlefelted. Peaches is five way thread jointed so can gently pose. Snowy is wrapped up in a hat an scarf.






Today I'm seeing my gynocologist six weeks after the procedure I had, he better not say everything is normal!!! if I'm not happy with what he wants to do today I'm getting a referral to a new one. I've been seeing him for two years and my "monthly friend" has just gotten worse and worse. I get two really heavy monthlies a month and can last up to 15 days heavy throughout no light days.

I also get extreme pain, fever and mood swings so you can guess why I want it to be fixed lol

anyways hope you are all doing well
Happy Wednesday

Coffee Companion handmade Crocheted


Introducing the Coffee companion! I created this crocheted goodness this morning ^^ its rather sweet and modernish with its polkadot pattern that I needlefelted on. I think it has many uses can hold things on the side like pen, small note book, glasses
and when not near your drink you can place it over the cup to protect your beverage from bugs and insects.





I'm really getting into this crocheting lark ^^ its rather fun. I think this would really look nice on a bedside table or in a garden tea party. I can create custom colors listing is in my etsy shop
Happy Monday

Waldorf fairy needlefelted




Something different a waldorf styled Fairy mounted on its own felted
backing and frame. I rather like how its turned out. We're having a heatwave
at the moment compartively speaking from last week which was freezing,
I've been dagging about in flip flops and my feet are paying for it, my poor
ankle is that swollen. I have lymphodema in my ankles from past feet reconstruction
when I was young.


But I digress lol the babies are doing well we're fully hand rearing again as mum hopped out of the nest which isn't a good sign.

But they are thriving more pictures to come of them soon

I'm crocheting up a storm at the moment started a bear today hopefully will have pics of him soon too

happy Saturday

new species? needlefelted




Hello all! great news we're not doing a full hand rearing we're doing what is called co rearing we take the babes away of a night so they don't get cold and monitor them during the day making sure they are getting fed. So far it is working so not as much sleeplessness as I first thought.

Here's what I've been working on I'm working on a story for them such as where they come from an island perhaps? I can't decide between Jubies, Zaffies or Zeebies for their "breed name"
What do you think or suggest?

sleepless nights

Hi all tragic news when I went to feed the birds and give extra food to the parent Conures I found that the tiny baby had been eaten. We think it could either have been by her or rodents. Now she's rejected the two healthy babies. They are far too young to self feed so we're hand rearing. This is a pic of the big baby on their first feed by us. My other half is showing me how its done.


Hand rearing was the last thing we wanted to do, it was their first clutch and generally it'll teach them bad habits. The parents I mean. I now believe we'll have some interupted sleep for the next while. The babies are in an incubator in the bathroom.

I really hope these two pull through. One has opened its eyes the smaller one is yet to do so and we think it'll think we're its mummy.
The imprint thing.

Anyways I'm off to make some coffee wish us luck

Sheepa the lambbear crocheted doll


Meet SheepaSheeap my first amigurumi styled teddy bear, my other half reckons she looks like a lamb so she's a teddylamb named SheepaSheepa. I made her last night and crocheted the dress for her today. I think she's turned out really sweet for my first ever crocheted doll.

I stuffed her with wool roving so she's lovely and soft and her eyes, nose and ears are needlefelted. My other half has requested I do a fox in this style lol I'm gonna start him tonight!




SheepaSheepa is available in my etsy store

Needle felted stork bird ooak



This is my latest the iconic stork, I've created a baby needlefelted version as I was inspired whilst watching an English documentory and they were raising storks in their shelter for wildlife. I think they are adorable.


This needlefelted stork is felted over craft wire so he can gently pose. He's one of my bigger felties stretched out he can be about 9 inches when posed or bent he can be about six inches long.

I hope you like him
