Ernest the ermine , Needle felted

This wee guy is named Ernest, I finished him last night while watching television . It is Not a good thing to felt and watch TV too many distractions result in lots of needle holes in fingers :(

Daisy Bear

This is Daisy , She was a challenge for Thread Artist Guild I belong to . I made Daisy . She really is a little bear . Notice her eyelidsand eyes look like little lady birds/bugs . She is in the company of some of her little friends from nature . She was a great deal of fun to make
I think My next creation will be a needle felted one , Although I have not decided what to make yet . I bet I will decide by tonight lol

I finished this little Kitten this morning , She is so tiny she can sit on my finger. I named her Bitty

The glue is not quite dry on her whiskers .

Malachy the felted mouse

I created this little mouse last week , His name is
Malachy , He is needle felted using a barbed needle and wool roving. Malach's feet and nose were hand molded by me , using Polymer . I also used polymer to make the plate , The cake is needle felted . This little one was made without use of a pattern , I usually visualize and design as I go along

Reilley the Cat

This is the cat Reilley who owns me , She was given to me by my daughter after another beloved kitty died. Bernie and I call her our first Grandchild

About Me

I was born and raised in Dublin Ireland , I now live in Delaware in the United States. I have been married to my husband and best friend Bernie since 1971. We have two adult children and are owned by a cat named Reilley.
I have always loved crafting . I used to embroider a lot , I also enjoy knitting , crocheting and needle felting. After discovering the art of crocheting miniature collectibles and needle felting I became hooked , They are now my passion. I sell some of them on Etsy and E Bay. Another of my hobbies is flower gardening , I love to read particularly books of Irish Interest.I also like Music of all kinds but tend to own mostly Irish and spiritual CD'S I hope to show and talk about my hobbies on this blog .
