Tommy the Tittermouse

I've added Tommy the Tittermouse to the felted infant bootie collection. He is just as soft and adorable as he looks!



Although he may be shy, he stays put on baby's feet to keep their sweet toes cozy.

Be on the look out for more cute animals to join in the collection!

Custom orders welcome in just the size you need up to 6 inch soles.

Meet Cindy and Mindy

I met the most wonderful etsy artist in the forums recently and I just can't resist sharing her work with you. I absolutely fell in love with her characters Cindy and Mindy. I hope you will too!



Cindy and Mindy are good friends that just seem to be curious, fun and sometimes get into a bit of trouble. But they always bring a smile to your face! This is a must see etsy shop. They are featured on Birthday Cards, Note Cards and Wall Art.

Who can resist?

She just has too much fun going to a birthday party.


or making faces in the mirror... is that me?


or making new friends


Of course, there is that bit of trouble she gets into once in a while!


And never telling a soul about it!



You can visit Mindy and Cindy at cindyandmindy.etsy.com and say hello to Jean - the creator who is one of the sweetest etsians!

Meet Lester the Lion

Lester is the third animal to join my zoo series. Bunny Fo Fo and Monkey See Monkey Do have welcomed him and are happy to have a new friend.

Lester tries to be ferocious, but he can't fool his new friends for long. He's just a little softie!!


Crocheted and felted with 100% wool, this pair of booties keep babies feet snug and warm... and hey, bringing a smile to their face doesn't hurt either!

Sunday Morning ~ Memorial Day Weekend



Well, by the looks of my poll, lilacs are in the lead! My tree is just about in full bloom now and the entire yard smells of lilacs. I keep a big vase full of them in the house, so it smells just as good inside as out.

This week I am working on several different projects and I have some ready to add to my shops, so be on the look out for some great new things - including Lion Baby Booties, a new set of Felted Nesting Bowls, another square bowl (too cool) and a new knit purse.

Here is my newest that is already available for sale and was inspired by the lovely lilacs!

Hoping that everyone has a wonderful weekend!

I had so much fun making those bunny booties, that I have moved on to other animals as well. Here is the second in a series of lovable animals for baby!

Keep checking in to see what other creatures are added to the zoo in the future ♥



If this pair is not the size you need just contact me through etsy or artfire and I will be happy to make a pair to fit.

Spring, Spring, Spring ♫ ♪

I'm just singing today! It is sunny, dry and warm and I think it may be here stay.

I snapped a couple pictures this evening ~

Now, I am not a photographer, but I thought it would be fun to open up voting on which is your favorite. This poll is just for fun to see which is more popular - lilacs, violets or apple blossoms ♥♥♥

Sunday Morning

Another Sunday!

I spent the morning putting the finishing touches on my entry for the EtsyHookers Creative Challenge # 6. The rules are that the item has to be crocheted and has to do with animals - either for or about them.

As with all challenges, I usually spend about a week or two just thinking about what I will do. But for this one, the idea came to me very quickly with our recent visit to my daughters house. Seeing Warren playing with the baby rabbits, I knew I had to make a pair of fuzzy bunny slippers.

So here they are, but watch out... once you have two bunnies together, you know what happens!
