Yep, it's been a while! I seem to say that every post I make. I guess sadly I don't get a whole lot of time to sew :( I did, however, create some goodies a few months ago that I have been wanting to share. I actually wanted to share at the time, but as some of these were gifts, I was a bit worried the recipients would see them. Anyway, I got inspired one afternoon when trying to think of something small I could make a friend for their birthday. My thoughts as usual went to embroidery, and then I have an epiphany! Maybe I could do more than embroider. Maybe I could incorporate felt. Quite coincidentally I found a stash of leftover felts in my sewing boxes and shazam, an idea was born.
My friend is a fan of Ugly Dolls, and so it's from here the idea was born (and multiplied once my first effort turned out so well!).

| Ta-da! Ice Bat done |
So the success of the Ice Bat Ugly Doll led me onto other adventures (it's amazing what one can do when they are trying to avoid doing proper work!). So I made a few friends for Ice Bat (well, temporary friends, given Ice Bat was destined for my friend).
Ugly Dog (although I argue it is more like a cat)

So I made some more....

OMG your stitching is just sooo neat! I love these, even though I haven't seen much about Ugly Dolls here. I know one friend who has one, but not sure which one it is. I think Tray is the cutest :)
