Hairy Cobness

Have made two lovely Cob Vanners this week, one's a nice trimmed show cob and the other a commission order with all hair blazing.  Have had a really quite week over all, so not much to say other than to show my new makes.  So here they are.  First up is the show Cob who I have called Shelly, she has a hogged mane and is all ready for the show ring.  

Next is a custom order of a very beautiful hairy stallion Vanner.

Full of feltie goodness

Here we are again with even more feltie.  I have been working with wool felt again.  It has such a beautiful feel to it, almost cool to touch.  I can't believe how many colours you can get. It produces a lot firmer model.   I think I will make clothes for the rest of my dolls, I have a Mum, Dad and two girls.  Mum has got her clothes and didn't turn out that bad really, she sits very well when riding my felties.

Here are the two latest makes.  first up is Jenaveve made in love straw coloured wool felt.

Second is the mega sweet Shetland pony Pickles



Spotty equine

Mixed bag of weather this week.  Last week we had a mini heat wave, now some parts of the country have had snow.  It is so bizarre, in the next breath we are on a hose pipe ban as of tomorrow.  I think the last hose pipe ban we had was in 1970 which I can just about remember ( showing my age now lol)

This my make this week, the lovely and very spotty Appaloosa Parker.  I have another model nearly finished, she will be posted in the next couple of days.  

Hope everyone has a good week, and enjoy the Easter break. 

Two new ones this week

Did the fun sports relief run yesterday.  Managed to get round three miles in 28 minutes.  I look exhausted in the photo but I'm not.  I jog three miles three times a week, so not a problem for me.  I just don't take a very good photo.  I look like that all the time lol.  It was great fun with lots of great people there all doing their bit.  Here I am.

Two new makes this week.  Have been working quite hard on these lately, and really enjoying myself.  I do tend to go off into a little world of my own.  I always say that these felties are my meditation.  Looking forward to taking some of them off to a model Julip show at the end of April.  Will get loads of pics to show everyone.
Here is the first of the two his name is Minstrel

Next is Astrid the Morgan mare.

Hope you like the new makes this week.  More to come as always.  Off to the Tate gallery Friday which I am really looking forward to.  Hubby is off this week so hoping to go to a couple of places.  Hope everyone has a good week and getting the lovely weather.

Darcy and Pip

Busy day today what with it being mothers day, hope all you mothers out there had a lovely day.  Took my lovely Mum to the garden center, then back and did a roast dinner.  I think she had a good day.  My lot gave me a lovely card and a little teddy bear.  I didn't get a break from cooking and a like.  I must admit I prefer to do it my way.

I have managed to complete two felties this week, nearly three. Just need to but the mane and tail on the next one.  I have been mega focused this week, which has been lovely.  Well less chatting and more pics.  Here they are.

First up is Darcy the gorgeous Palomino.

Next is the lovely little Pip

Hope you like these new equines and have a fab week.

  

Exmoor pony X

Here is my latest make this week.  Zac is an Exmoor pony cross.  I say cross because he came out a little to big to be a true Exmoor,  but he doesn't mind, he is very happy little chap.  He measures 6 1/2 inches tall but this is because he is pulling his chin in. Here he is in all his glory.   

Arab Mare Silver

As in the last post I promised pics of the Arab I was making.  No feathers with this one lol.  I loved painting this one.  I think Arabs are natural posers.  I am make a Dartmoor pony next, only thing is I think it is coming out to big, the paint job has gone well.  I will post pics of him in the next couple of days.  Here are pictures of Silver the Arab mare.
