You never know? One for me the result!

A while ago ( 22.7.14) I started a 'one for me' felt sat in the sun.
Today as the sun shone again I finished him.
I love doing pieces like this where I never know what the outcome is going to be. At first I was heading down the troll line but now Im not sure. 
I like him and Ive enjoyed making something for me for a change. I will be taking him along to a local show tomorrow, Ive been asked to spend the day demonstrating, so a full day felting for me! Cant be bad.
Back to my orders now!

Feet

Feet! 
They will be troll feet when I have made them mucky! 
These are the first feet I have ever made!

A lot of fun to make!

One for me

I have been so lucky this year to have had a regular supply of orders coming through. Some have given me the ability to learn new techniques. Others to use wool I havent used before, while others have been a challenge to my skill. I have enjoyed them all. My favourites being the Alice in wonderland characters. 
Now I have almost completed my last order to date I suddenly got all excited and realised for the first time this year, I could make something I wanted to make! 
I had a look at my inspiring board on Pinterest and decided I would make a troll.
Not sure what he was going to look like ( there's so many different looking trolls) but I would just see what happened. 
I sat wool and needle in hand, sat on a steamer chair, on the decking, in the garden, in the sun, could life be any better? And started stabbing.
3 hours and burn't arms later this is how far I have got.


Loads more to do but I think im going to like him.
What do you think?
