I fell in love with these patterns and the pixie doll is a no sew construction all in one doll. We'll see how that turns out.

The pics belong to the seller of course but I just wanted to share my latest purchases, its been much to hot in Melbourne to do much crafting, we're in a heatwave at the moment so I've been shopping instead haha.

Needle felted Tiger cub

I finally have my needle felting mojo back! I worked out it was a change in my meds earlier last week and I was having really bad insomnia because of it and was jumpy too so now its fixed I'm felting again.

This is going to be entered into the craft show have to have all entries ready on the 1st of March.

I'm hoping to be entering six pieces.




I've got four ready and am either going to choose two out of my stash or if inspiration strikes make two.

Happy Saturday

needle felted beaver

This is my latest a chubby little needle felted Beaver. I created him the other day had to wait until this morning to take decent pics of him.



I'm not listing on Etsy much at all now I've decided not to as I'm just not selling, not getting many views either so I'll be listing things here and if people want to purchase they can contact me. I just think I'm not enjoying the Etsy process anymore. Its just too competative. I've had more sales in real life so I'm happy with that.

In other news Wildy has his freedom again with his wound being healed. I let him out without the cone the other day he seems to be doing ok. I've got the cone at least in case he starts scratching again.

The special birds I was mentioning the other day didn't happen as planned turned out to be way out of our budget as the wrong price had been quoted to us.

But my other halfs brother managed to catch a canary that had escaped from someones home. He's been recovering in a holding cage and we'll see what we'll do with him. He's a yellow one unsure if he's an actual male yet no singing but maybe after he settles he might if he is indeed a male.

Today I'm readying Crocheted throws and wraps by Melody Griffiths and am trying to decide on a project to start.

Happy Thursday

needle felted puppy love

Ready for Valentines day? I'm knowing what I'm getting already haha we have it on layby though its a Bunnikins figurine. We're not really doing anything special other than probably eating some nice food and spending some time together which is nice as date nights.

This however is my latest a needle felted little puppy, I've named him Tango



he's available in my etsy shop.
I've been feeling uninspired lately I don't know if I'm putting too much pressure on myself to be creating cute nice looking animals but anything I'm working on I just don't like (except Tango otherwise I'd not show him haha) but I've just been having a big case of the blahs I think.

I think its to do with my monthly wont go into too much detail of course but most know I have terrible issues with it. Pmdd and what not. I'll ride it out hopefully my mojo will return. I normally love needle felting when I'm like this as it takes the frustration out, I tried crocheting but I haven't got the focus at the moment for that.

But my other half and I are looking at getting some special birds this week I'm trying not to be excited about it until it happens I'll let you know after tomorrow
For now Happy Valentines day for tomorrow

needle felted teddy bear Cocoa

This is my latest bear named Cocoa he's able to pose and bend due to wire armature and he's one of my larger sculptures. I'm intending to enter him in the up coming Knox Arts and craft show that I entered last year.



He's approx nine inches tall and has lovely toffee colored eyes and cream beige muzzle and paw pads. If he sells before the craft show I'd be happy to send him to his new show I'll just have to make another one.




I was sneaky today and took these photos in my next door neighbors garden. The house is up for rent and is empty but I still felt guilty being there haha. But Cocoa seemed to have enjoyed his outing with me.

Happy Friday
