A Tantilizing Tidbit


Thought I would share a wee smidgen of my "Under the Sea Swap" project. It is coming along swimmingly...pun intended! I do believe, if all goes well & no disaster ensues...that it will be ready to go to it's new home by the end of next week.
My original plan was to create a wool~felt seahorse with needle felted details sitting on a ocean inspired paper-mache box. Well, I did make the seahorse, it's not yet finished... but it is turning out to be a much more elaborate project then I thought it would be. Something I want to take my time with & work on now & then. Instead... I came up with a similar design, but one which can be completed in the time frame given for this swap. I love how it has turned out...quaint, whimsical, funny & a little odd...exactly how I like my dolly's!
It is a brand new design & one I think will be well liked by its recipient! All I have to do now is make a wee something for it to rest it's wee fuzzy behind on.
I will be posting photos of the completed piece in the near future. For now have a great week-end & thanks for popping by.
Warmly, Susan
