The little curious girl . .

She is a really nosy one, didn't have the patience to wait until I finish her claws, or as a matter of fact her ears ! Yes they have tiny ears and that explains it ! She don't listen !

Found her on a tree this morning. . .

 Big smile of course !

Between the pillows . . .

I could catch her and here she is , I thought she would be sleepy by now but NO

As I was working on her ears, she sneaked up on me, climbed upon the table . . . . 

Pheeew, she snuggled up with Pinky and I think she is asleep now :-)

Little sillyness

I found this little mouse today, this was really my first needle felt attempt.

I stumbled upon Natasha Fadeeva ( http://www.fadeeva.com/ ) 4 years ago and was totally in awe of all of her critters. The mice and the cats were my favourite.

I've never heard about needle felting before and had no idea what it was all about.

Her cats are mostly knitted and I thought, well I can give that a try. I emailed Natasha and she was so very sweet to mail me a pattern of the knitted cat. I bought some fluffy wool and started to knit.

Mmmmm, didn't work. I can knit a sweater as long as the pattern consists of squares, square front, square back, square sleeves sewn together and voila: a "sweater".

So after endless research on needle felting on the internet I bought needles ( in a shop where they sold supplies for making dreadlocks) and I started my first mouse. I copied Natasha of course and this mouse was my first :

It had a terrible body and I put it away in a box where I save my "attempts".

I think after about 8-9 months I tried again and made this Pinky:

Well, to get back at the mouse, I found it and I thought her little head was cute, so I cut of her body, glued it on a piece of black cardboard and glued the whole thing on the skirting ( I'm not sure how it's called in English, vertical boarding ? )

Silly isn't it :-)
