Freddy the puppet

Freddy is made out of foam (the head), fleece, yarn (hair) and two dowels to make the hands work.  I used a glue gun...or got help to use it after I burned myself!


You should watch the movie "Being Elmo", about Kevin Clash, the puppeteer of Elmo.  It made me want to make Freddy.  




I used this youtube video to help me figure out how to make the head. That's the hardest part.

Felted Bear drinking coffee



This is one of my favourite felted projects ever.  I didn't use a pattern.  I free-styled.  I sold this to a friend of mine when I had a mini-craft sale.

Hi everyone.  I'm back, and I have lots of crafts to catch you up on.

This is an crocheted Amirigumi snail I made.  It was a birthday present for the little brother of my best friend.

I used yarn, a #3 crochet needle  and two wooden beads for the eyes.

I also made a tiger but I can't find that picture right now.

There are lots of cool Amirigumi patterns.  I recommend trying it.
