Felt and Honest Abe

Here are some of the things I've been working on! WOOO!

My first felt attempt. It was meant to be a cookie, cause all I had was brown felt at the time. I glued the chips on... and I tried to add the face with puff paint but I hated it so I tried to peel it off and we can see how that turned out. LOL.

My second attempt. I wanted to make a daisy, then decided I'd just make a smiley-face/sun. For a smiley face, it sure doesn't look too happy. Hahaha. Apparently, it's very hard to sew by hand a nice circular shape.


These will be out of order now because I don't really remember. Haha. This is my baby carrot. The camera makes it look neon, i'm not sure why. It looks way brighter than it does in person. But, I like it. hehe.


I think the toast was probably my third....and the pickle soon after. They both have pins attached to the back so that they can be worn or put on a purse/backpack.

Yay! It's my tooth fella! I really love how he turned out :D I used some pretty new washable markers to trace the outline, then washed it off afterwards. He looks so fat and content! Geez my eczema looks terrible...!


I made this one for a good friend of mine! He likes apples. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to send it to him any time soon. But it was fun to make. I added the detail on the leaf but then glued it on the the body. and the stem was made into a loop for the steel ball chain. This isn't very sturdy exactly, so maybe I'll have to invest in some stem-coloured ribbons in the future.


Here's my first portrait of Abraham Lincoln. I wasn't sure if I could draw him from pictures, but I think I did a decent job. This isn't finished, I need to add a lot more detail. From here I'm going to make a few more portrait tests and then move on to a bigger and more complicated endeavour :D


Detail of Abe's face. This done in watercolour with prismacolour detailing. I need to find out what colour his eyes were. I just kinda made up the hair colour. haha. I'm thinking of adding a wallpapery pattern in the background.
