This weeks makes

Only the two this week, but boy did I enjoy these.  I have been designing some new patterns. The Freisian Murphy being one of them.  Have been wanting to make a Donkey for some time now and finally got round to it.  These lovely chap have already been adopted.
First up is Blue the Donkey
Followed by the lovely Mungo the Fjord. 
These guys are off to join their brothers and sisters at subscriber Kims home.  I think she has a large herd of my felties now

Three more nags.

Three more new models this week.  Have had a strange old week this week.  One minute up on cloud nine, then having trouble focusing.  Monday was the hottest day this year, so not much got done.  I did go out jogging, then spent most of the morning trying to cool down.  All good fun.

Well here they are.  First up is the lovely Smokey.  He is made from the lovely wool felt.    
Next is Coco the Welsh cob. 


And last is the magestic Friesian Murphy, showing himself off beautifully.

Summer diorama competition

I ran a little competition on a forum I belong to.  I asked the members to come up with a summer diorama scene.  This is the winner.  I think Stacey has done a fantastic job.  She wins herself a rosette.

Busy, busy

I have managed to stay very focused over the last couple of weeks, and have managed to make four new horses.  I have bought this lovely wool felt fabric in motted shades.  It has a lovely feel to it, real quality.  I have some 100% wool felt coming which I am hoping to make a Fjord out of.  Watch this space.  First up is Kermit
Not very happy with his front legs, didn't manage to get much shape worked into them.
Next is Tuppence.
Lovely little sheltand pony.
Next is Stroller, named after a horse in a book that I am reading at the moment

And last but not least is the very pretty Soreen.

Huge model horse

Here are some fantastic photos of subscriber Kim's model horse at the bottom of her garden.     He is called Jink's after her pony she owned when she was ten.  I wish I had the room for one of these impressive chaps. Thank you Kim for letting me share these.

Busy week

Busy week making last week.  Managed to stay focused enough to make three.  I am sticking to 1/12th for awhile. Hope you like this week offerings.

First up is Hettie,  I did have trouble with her name, I couldn't decide what she looked like.  My husband helped in the end, well he suggested Hannah because of her white mane and tail (We have a niece with bright blond hair called Hannah) but I thought I couldn't really name her after our niece.  I don't know how Hannah turned into Hettie.
This feltie measures 5 3/4 tall. I think the Julip rider fits well on board.

Next up is Apollo, this is a very moody little pony. He measures approx 4 1/2 inches tall.

Again the rider fits well.
Next is the mighty max, he measure approx 6 1/2 inches tall.

I am praying for another productive week next week.
