felted "cowdog" small stuffed toy


this was harder then it looked.
It was my attempt to make this look like "April" a black and white terrier mix.
It's no where close.
A free and small pattern that had to be hand sewn to get around due to the size of it.
I will probably wear reading glasses the next time (if I make it)
surprisingly the photo came out better then the actual doggie.
I call it the "cowdog" because it looks like it.
here's the definition, old Mac users will know what it is:

Goth-like fabric pin...made from left over fabric


center is glass beads with ripped netting fabric.
been having a weird itch to sew...machine and hand. I just made pj pants from never used fabric....from projects when kenny was a baby and discovered that with a baby, I didn't have time to make anything for him. <;0(
We also have lots of XL and XXL men's t shirt that I will cut up and make into something...might be more shorts for kenny or maybe a stuffed animal...

black kat pin- hand sewn from felt


(posted from my craft blog- I still don't know how it ends up on my fb)
so i felt like felting a felted pin.
I copied the pattern from a japanese craft book, that I cannot read, since I'm not that japanese-y, although
one day I will be....I guess I'll have to stick it out in Nihon for a couple of months to get my vocab up to speed.
sorry, random rambling.
