Felt Owl

For my daughters last day of school I made a little gift for her teacher... since all the kids in her class had gifts why not the teacher.  I found a picture of this owl online and thought it was so cute so I did my version of it in plush.  I made a fabric ball and then cut each feather out from felt and stitched it on.  I made the graduation hat from a cardboard and covered it with felt.  I the apple was made from satin cloth and the chalk board was felt with hand stitched words.  Each item has a magnet on the bottom and so does the board so it can be taken apart and be placed back to the exact spot.  The site where I found this owl is ...

Finger Puppets

I haven't posted in a while so thought I'd better catch up and show some of the things I've been working on lately.  So first of all I'll start with the Finger puppets.  I made a bunch of these for my daughters last day of school back in June and for her loot bags in July (I guess you know how long I haven't been posting. :P)  I made these only for the boys because I had other things in mind for the girls.  I got the idea from surfing around different sites and really liked the ones from this site  http://www.theidearoom.net/2010/04/felt-finger-puppets-and-tutorial.html  I changed mine a bit... hope you will have fun making these.
