A new mouse.

I've been playing with the mice again and created 'Ida May', she loves to quilt although she's a little short sighted. Here she is after spending her day at the local quilters get together. She's ready to put her feet up and enjoy  a cup of tea and a piece of chocolate cake!!

This gal is a prototype, there are things to change next time I make her. She can only get better.

I have a few wool needlekeep kits left after my teaching trip to London.

They are for sale on Etsy, just click the link on my side bar if you would like one.

Have a good weekend.

xox Angela.

Ida May is adorable and amazing! You have dressed her so beautifully and I have never seen a mouse in glasses before - oh how sweet is that? Not to mention the little quilt and basket.
Beautiful work Angela - you have such an eye for detail and immagination!
Thanks also for your sweet comment about Amarlia's Birthday journal too!

Just to give you an idea, this is something I made yesterday. I started with a piece of dyed and felted wool blanket, some merino wool tops and a piece of embellished net fabric.                               The first piece of blanket was a shade of grey but I forgot to take the picture, you know how it is,too much on the go. I used my embellisher to felt the merino wool on to the fabric, I didn't overwork it so it stayed nice and soft. You could also do this with a hand held felter the results are the same. Next I used the embellisher to attach a strip o...

Progress on the Christmas quilt.

Progress on my Christmas quilt is slow, I keep being distracted by other things. (see my other blog )                                         The angel is aloft, surrounded by stars. I added a little 'Love' 'Joy' and 'Peace'. I have no plan in mind just stitching and seeing how it turns out. I'm off to pick up my needle. xox Angela.
