Counting the critters

When I started making my felted things, I started with flowers. Then, slowly, I moved into birds and those I have been making some. Big, small, moms, babies, girls, lads, parrots, owls... You name it, I've done it. But what else?




Cats, dogs, oh yes, and an odd frog!



Happy hedgehogs, a raccoon...check
Wait a minute, a raccoon you say? But naturally:



Anything else... Hmm...We'll see... Ladybugs?



Many. A monkey? Sure:



And then the usual foxes and squirrels... and a happy worm, too.



And even an apple with worm might worry you a bit, I am sure this little guy makes you smile:


Happy December 2nd and wonderful weekend, everyone!

Yours,
Mia

Mia, I love the new additions to the pack! I really love the squirrel with the acorn. Although of course I love them all, the dogs, cat, raccoon, and hedgehog, oh and the happy worm and fox. Love my coasters and sweet christmas birdie. Many thanks and wishes for a happy holiday season to you and Hb. xoRobin❤

Hi Jane,

I remembered the pig, but unfortunately I didn't take a picture of her (him?) before sending her off to you :)

Happy weekend to you too!

Yours,
Mia

I am so sorry, Vivienne, I did remember the bunnies when I chose the pictures but I just somehow missed them when uploading, sorrysorrysorry :)

And it seems that the little raccoon is a favorite here :)

I wish you a cozy and happy weekend!

Yours,
Mia

Thank you so much, Helen!

The little raccoon seems to be a surprise winner of the all (even there really wasn't even a poll), and I am definitely going to use him for something else in the future too :)

Wishing you a cozy and warm weekend!

Yours,
Mia

Hello Anne,

I personally liked the hedgehogs too, and cannot really understand why it took this long for me to make them...They're such a fun characters!

Have a happy weekend, I am soon off to children's Christmas-crafting event with L!

Yours,
Mia

Mia said...

Thank you, Teje!

I love making little (and some bigger, too) animals, and more the merrier so new addictions coming soon I would say :)

Have a wonderful weekend!

Yours,

This time of the year...

Usually around this time, when children go back to school, and you can just about to smell the autumn, I start to dig deeper in my fabric...
