New Work

My blog has been quiet cause I've been so busy! I wanted to share a few of the things I've been working on:

These guys are a few of the Woolies that are on their way to The Baby Gardner.

Just a sampling! Lots more, and LOTS more ideas for my SHOP. :)

Creative Friday

My sister in law loves Giraffes, and I love my sister in law. I've been branching out into more - unusual stuffed animals - so here's the two newest for this week.

yep, giraffe.

and Mole, like from Wind in the Willows.

You can find both at Woolies. :)

OMIGOSH! A Flying Pixie!!!

She flies! Watch out! I should say, she's learning to fly! She doesn't have anybody here who is a particularly good fly-er, so she has to learn on her own. So she keeps climbing up on tables and chairs and kitchen counters - and jumping! Her little wings go flappity-flappity-flap, and she actually stays up for a little while, then - crash!

I have to say, she is very brave.

Her name is Fiona. She's a hand knitted pixie-fairy. She's knitted from a mix of organic cottons, and wool/cotton blends. She's stuffed with clean carded wool. She has a flower in her hair, with neat and tidy (most of the time) little curls. She has a sweetly embroidered face, so she is safe for all ages - no buttons!

And - best of all - you can purchase her right here at my blog - look over to the right!

Please let me know if you have any questions! I do hope Fiona finds a good home, with lots of supervision while she learns to fly.

Hand knit stuffed animals, and their pictures

Once again, it's been proven what an incredibly lousy photographer I am. It's the lighting.

I made these mice as part of a Woolies wholesale order. I took pics, sent them to my buyer, then she took pics and put them up on her site.

Wow what a difference!! Can you guess which are her pics??

Ponies

Just had to share all these ponies! They look so cute all lined up together. They are made in the Waldorf tradition - no facial features. It is up to the child to decide if their pony is happy or sad, playful or wants to nuzzle. There are six of them - being shipped off today! Next up - 5 black sheepies!

Meecie Mice

Just wanted to share these little guys; they are part of a wholesale order, my very first.

They are Edward and Tessa, brother and sister. Edward is very protective of his little mousie sister, and sometimes even agrees to come to her tea parties. (It might be the little salad sandwiches that she serves..). Tessa adores her big brother, and has been known to follow him around the neighborhood. Which does not always make their Mommy mouse happy, as following Edward around usually requires climbing through holes and dusty garages, resulting in a not very clean dress!

But Mommy mouse smiles as she does the laundry, knowing that her mousie children are happy and together.

These little mice are adapted from a pattern by fuzzymitten, with quite a few liberties taken. Used with permission.
