I made Noel Bunny last Sunday at a fantastic brooch making workshop with Julie Arkell! I spent
Her real pocket is stitched with silver floss |
This primitive, naive and whimsical style of sewing suits me perfectly! 100% hand stitched, this little bunny has french knot eyes, a working pocket for her hand to keep warm in, and some wool felt boots with dotty stockings! I love the hand sewing part - stitches to get it stitched instead of all perfect and pretty - that's my kind of sewing. This all adds character to the figure. I hope to make her a friend soon.
Noel Bunny carries a heart and a snowflake |
I also made a snowman brooch (oh how I LOVE snowmen!!!).
Though I have followed the Le Challenge since its inception, this is my first time linking up. Happy Saturday to you all!

Very cute....workshops can be expensive, but this one looks so worth the money as its also about the chatter and meeting people there too. Now you can also use what you learnt there to make lots more ....and send one to me!
