Hipster Horse

Just on a short stroll in the woods, minding my own business when I saw this...

 

 

The Hipster movement has taken a step too far this time, or maybe 'Movember' is still a thing? This dapper chappie certainly thinks so.

(Subsequently found out that some Cobs or Gypsy Vanners have this feather to their genetic bow)

A Boxer Named Wellington

Just finished a commission for a lovely couple who own a huge character in the shape of a Boxer dog named Wellington (Welly for short)

Torn between a needle felted version or a pastel portrait they ended up wanting both.

I studied so many photographs of his face that I could see his little teef when I closed my eyes at night!!

Sloth In A Bucket

Perhaps the current cold spell is affecting my judgement but a miniature sloth in a bucket seemed like a perfectly reasonable idea the other night. Having acquired a number of brass trinkets, this little bucket was crying out for a inhabitant. My partners face was a picture when he asked what I was doing but I had the last laugh as 'ol' three toe' sold at a fair this weekend.

Here is a quick snap of him that I took on my phone - cant decide if he's looking on approvingly or judging me as I enjoyed a post production glass of wine!

 

The Christmas Spirit

Spent a few minutes admiring the double window display of Shabby Chic Country Living in Dorkings West Street this weekend

 

 

Now that's what I call Christmassy!

Needle Felted Black Labrador

I have been battling with Cosby on and off for a few weeks now, trying to capture his doleful expression!

 

Owned by my cousin and family, he's a failed Guide Dog (he liked other dogs too much and got distracted) The softest, most loveable lump, he is now in his senior years but still enjoys a good paddle about in the stream when he gets a chance. 

Christmas Robin Decoration

I supposed I'm allowed to mention the C word now that we are into November?!

Just added this guy to my Folksy shop, made from needle felted wool and framed in an embroidery hoop.

 

 

A robin tamed me once (yes I do mean that way around!) and he had be set up a mealworm feeding station for his exclusive use. I got into big trouble if I didn't prioritise his breakfast when I arrived in the mornings and he would stand bobbing by my elbow until I paid him due attention.

Available in my Folksy shop now

New Stock in my Folksy Shop

Lots of new items added to my Folksy shop including a needle felted Greyhound, Fox Terrier & Otter to name a few!
