In the Mail...

Have I ever told you how much I love making these little felt ornaments? I'm pretty sure I have. Making ornaments sure beats the pants off my most recent project...altering a costume for the Nutcracker.Yuck!

Slippery synthetic fabric and alterations=MISERY

I think I would rather gouge my eye out with my scissors. In fact, I almost did. Fear not. I am done with the alterations and I still have both my eyes. Yay and yippee!

Now back to my little felties...I loved every minute of making them. They went in the mail to Canada earlier this week. I think they will be happy living together in a sparkly Christmas tree up north. I had a little trouble parting with Foxie Loxie, but I said my goodbyes and put her in the mail with the others. I think I heard her sniffle a little when I was wrapping her in tissue paper. Oh, wait. That might've been me. I have another little fox part way stitched. I wonder if she will make it on my tree this year. My make-it-before-Christmas list is pretty long, but maybe...

Just precious! I love their eyes. So much expression. The racoon just slays me :)

So adorable. Just printed it out to make a few for me to hang in the sewing room. You inspired me to buy the sparrow pattern as well. Have a good one!

They're all adorable - I don't think I would have been able to part with them. My list is way too long too - I'm pretty sure it all won't get done!!!

These are just gorgeous!!!

My kids love these and a begging for them for their tree. Do you have a pattern for the fox and raccoon also?

[Alyce Anne]

These are adorable! I think they need to come to my house, too. :) This may be a really silly question that would be answered if I would read another post, but do you sell these on Etsy or somewhere else, or do you have patterns available?

They are all soooo Cute!
At least you have pictures to look at when you miss them
I especially like the fox and raccoon

Thanks for sharing the felties!

SOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE and SWEET..LOVE them too the person in Canada will be so happy with them...I wished it was me!

[Gumbo Lily]

So very adorable. I can see why you cried when you send good bye!

[Wendi In Biarritz]

Sooo cute! Do you have the patterns available as a group download? Or better yet a set with the felt and eyes all packaged up with the patterns? You could sell the heck out of either of these options. Imagine, creating it once, enjoying the process and the result and then selling hundreds more in pattern or "set" form!

Hi there! I just tried to email you and it said email not set up..... I made one of your old patterns...a squirrel...as a Christmas gift for a squirrel fanatic...it came out fantastic, but because I have no experience sewing, I am stuck as to how to make the part it will hang from...do you just use a needle and attach a thread? HELP! Jackie at pleasureinsimplethings.com

Darling cute. I ADORE the skunk... Wish I had the patience to make things like these... Is it hard?

[Lisa]

These are SO CUTE!!! Can't wait to make these for my grandkids! Just darling!

[wendy]

oh how lovely, these are just gorgeous!

[Shari]

These are killing me with their cuteness! I know Christmas is over, but maybe that's a good thing. I'll probably need until next year to actually finish these. I don't see the pattern in your shop though.

I love these! Do you have/sell these patterns? I would definately be interested in them! mrskroger@gmail.com
