I just had to share :) The little bunny was my first and the blue bird followed shortly after! They are 3.5" bendies not counting tips ears ect ... A goofed stitch here and there but man IM HOOKED ;) I cant wait to make another one of my sketches come alive!

I also just want to say I hope this shows I am serious lol ... I know Ive popped in out of no where and have tried jumping into whatever swaps I can - I figured it would be addictive if I actually attempted to do something - I was right lol ... I cant wait to start on my next one tomorrow ...

So here they are with padded feet and a bushy little tail and plump round bellies .. my bendies in costume! :heart:

Are you sure you havenīt made stuff like that before?
Thank goodness you came out of the closet (or is it sewing board?)! You are bringing some fresh ideas!
And I am in the same group with you on the fantasy creatures swap :cuc:

Thanks Mamas!! Im glad I came out too LOL ... I cant wait to share my newest little bundle hopefully tomorrow it will be complete! Its a little more involved ;) lol

I am glad to see some are happy Im in their group lol makes me feel good :happy: Ive been teetering on a different idea for one of the groups Im in for the fantasy swap it wont get out of my head and I dont want to fill another spot so I may switch my snotlings for my other idea cuz I think Id have more fun making it ;) .... to decide!!

Im glad I finally gave it a shot instead of worrying that Id screw something up and not do it right lol

Glad to be here with you other talented mamas!

Great job!!!

Jodi, Sorry for the flu-induced delay, they go out tomorrow!!!

for Sillymommy:
Danielle has a How-to, in the Crafty FAQ section (I think) and there is always Salley Mayvor's Felt Wee Folk or is it Wee Felt Folk? Anyway, those are 2 great resources to get you on your way to bendy mania. I would try Danielle's directions first, they are very simple and beautiful results come out of them ;)
