Can't Wait to Make some Bees!




 The little bee pattern is by Lisa Scherer Art (on Etsy) I changed it a little but she has really nice things. The flowers are from the dollar store near me and I used some black rick rack and little button eyes. And mine have toothpick legs since I didn't have any cinnamon sticks to use.  Happy Sunday.

Irish Man in a sock...




 Pattern by Chestnut Junction.  Pretty much the hair and face as the last one.  Painted shirt and hat and made my own belt buckle again.  Both of these, different but yet similar, are made from patterns by two of my favorite makers.

New Man





 Have never made a leprechaun before and had to learn how to spell it!


Crows Roost pattern.  He has a painted torso, shoes and hat.  His face is stained osnaburg and pinch-stitched nose, embroidered eyes and smile.  His arms are small rusty nails and I made a buckle from rusty wire.  Oh, his beard and hair, fought with those and settled on orange jute, shredded a bit , glued a bit, stitched a bit and needle felted a bit. He probably needs a shamrock to go with.

Now I am working on his brother for tomorrow.  Wet snow is just starting.  Happy Groundhog day!
