I've been having the best time transferring ideas from the lawn mower to the studio...
These babies came out better than I'd originally imaged. The carrot was short and plump while perfectly tapered and the pea pod worked on the first try. That could actually be a new record, for me. I'm usually tossing a good deal of wool while prototyping.
Now that they're finished, do I keep them together or split them up? They look so happy all together, don't you think? ugh. decisions.decisions.
I also tried my hand at a nesting set.
I made graduated eggs, then embellished them with embroidery and wool felt. I got a thumbs up from Gusty on these.
Well, I have to take a break from the felting and get some laundry done. Buzz killer. lol.
I LOVE them both! I am so excited to see more cute stuff from you. You never fail to amaze me with your talent!

LOVE the vegetables! I'd keep them together - the peas are my favorite! thanks for sharing.

I was recently on a tour of preschools and nesting dolls were all the rage. I should have known the next thing you would amaze us with is the wool version. We are on the same wave link. LOVE THEM!!!!

The faces are adorable! And the nested eggs are really cool. Great work - I love to see what you've come up with. Oh, and the name "Chateau Chicken" kills me :)

Thanks all. I have decided to keep them all together. :o) Happy little family.

I want a doll set badly! I had a wooden one growing up and I wish my mama had saved it. I have no idea what happened to it. My 4 month old needs one of those. *off to stalk HC store* :)
