Tiny elves

 Bank holiday ..felt creative …I had dug out my fimo to try and make some eyes I would be happy with the the micro cat ..my first attempt at cane work …then I fished out my UV lamp ….the joys of hoarding ..amd having a craft stash …I bought it to varnish painted copper ..I’ve not done that yet LOL 

So today I got it out for the eyes …very pleased with the results …so I thought I would make a couple of heads …

I really REALLY want to make 1/24 and 1/48 scale figures , for our houses … so thought I’d practice a bit 

The Fimo was very hard ..so I use baby oil to soften it back up so it’s workable 

It took me all day to do these little heads …but I’m so pleased with them …now I need to work out the body and clothes …but I’m off to Rosie’s for a couple of days 

So Thursday I will get the Fimo out

And I’m trying to resist the Love Crafts sale ! 

30% off 10 balls …I DO NOT need another project to start …I have more sock yarn than you can shake a stick at …I have yarn to knit 6 jumpers and I’m knitting myself 2 now 

And enough DK to knit 2 bed covers …and we won’t mention the cotton 

I will use up some of that before I buy ANYMORE 

there I’ve said it LOL 

 

Baby blankets done ❤️

 2 of Rosina Planes fabulous mosaic patterns 

Gracie picked the animals she wanted .. one for her and one for the new baby , we don’t know the sex until it’s birth , but it’s due any time NOW 

I’m so pleased with them .. so is Gracie .. and of course I made a Nusse Dukke blankie bear for the new baby  , like I did for Gracie ❤️

Tiffany and her kitty at last she is finished ❤️

 So very please with how these have turned out ..

I honk she maybe my favourite so far , the pattern is Little Witch Mimi by MissGurumi 

And for the kitty I used Obscurely Small’s pattern both available on Etsy 

I love the shaping  for the little legs …I’m already planning Naughty Amelia Jane …one leg done 

But got side tracked by the new Jumper I’m knitting myself …I’ve never learnt colourwork …so I am now …although the warmer weather is coming …and I’m trying not too loose momentum 

At least the baby blankets and been finished …must save a picture here …and the baby’s bear 

So many ideas …so little time and I really have to finish little Alfie’s…although I’m not enjoying the pattern
