Here's where my creations end up, from crochet and needle felting to painting. Along with some random things I just happened to like.

Painted Rock Girl
This little redhead has been sitting on my shelf, hands in her pockets for a few years now. Waiting for a bus which never came? At least she still has her youth. Maybe a Painted Rock Boy will sweep her off her feet.
Upside Down Dog - my First Felted Airedale
There's something really sweet about this fellow. It was Troy the Airedale's favourite pose when I made it more than a few years ago. Troy is no longer with us but this little tribute remains on my shelf. I sometimes think that your first efforts at making something can be the most 'honest'. Sometimes, of course, they can be your most 'disastrous', but those ones probably won't make an appearance here. Here's to you, Troy.

Brian the Baby Elephant
From a pattern in a Japanese craft book. I felt like he needed something else, so added the hair and needle felted and appliqued a little heart to his chest with blanket stitch. Happy with the fabric choice (very fine corduroy) and the stitching. There's something very satisfying about blanket stitch. Would like to do more needle-felting again too. That might help bust the wool stash in the spare room, so we can finally transform it into baby Thomas' room. Would be good to have him in his own room before he goes to school :o) Especially before high school... Better get busy with those needles.

Sad Wheaten Terrier Painting
A sympathetic puppy - who can stay blue for long with such a companion?
