Merry yuletide

A little late but merry christmas to everyone.  Hope you had a good one.  Also best wishes for the new year. Will have some fresh models coming up soon after a very long drought.  No drought weather wise here, we have had rain, rain and a little more rain leading to road closers and allsorts.  I am planning to have a web site soon so will keep everyone informed on that. Hand is all better now but do have to be careful.

Happy new year

Long break

Haven't really been making many models at the moment because I hurt my hand, which makes sewing a little sore.  It is getting better slowly so have just started up again.  I do get very despondent with these but I could not tell you why.  I like to make all sorts of things but never feel as if I make a very good job.  I keep thinking of showing my models, but tend to lack the motivation.  I think I should just go with the flow really.  The cold short days are very uninspiring, I should stop making excuses really.  I hope to have some pics soon of a horse I made to 1/9th scale out of calico. I starting her some time back, she has been waiting for her mane and tail, she keeps looking at me begging to be finished.  I think that I will show her.  I will put her up for sale, but I very much doubt the I will get what I want for her.  She took a long time to make.

Hope everyone is ok.  And thank you for sticking with me.  

I'm still here

I'm still here.  I have wobbled abit with my model making.  Thinking that it's all a waste of time.  But I think I am starting to come back to it.  I do miss it when I'm not making them.  I might make a bigger model, 1/9th in faux suede.  I think I will put them up sale on ebay because I run out of room for them.  So if any one is interested I will put a link to the listing when I feature any new model.  I was also thinking of going to some model horse shows and having a stall there.  I'm not working at the moment so if I could make a little bit of money from them would be a bonus.  

Arab overload

Have been asked to make more Dapple grey Arabs, so photos to follow, also a Gypsy Vanner.  I have been busy indoors because the weather has been so bad.  At least it helps me focus, because as you know I have trouble with that.  I have been working on a crochet Tartan blanket aswell, not sure if anyone would be interest in seeing that when it's done.  I have never managed to finish any of the blankets so far, but really hope I can with this one.  It's will be a real achievement.  I have seen a real horse for sale that I can not afford.  I keep think about him, and soon he will be sold.  I think I will make a model of him to remind me of him.  Have a Shetland, Arab and Morgan to make plus a needle felted Deer hound, so will be very busy over the next couple of weeks.  

Would like to thank everyone who give me lovely comments.  I do publish them, but not sure if you can see them.

Well without further a do here are the latest felties.

First up we have one of the Arabs. very much like one I have made before.

Next is the Gypsy Vanner Cob.

And finally the other Arab. 

Full steam ahead.

I have been rushed of my feet with regards to making my felties.  I have had a lot of commission come in all at once, so busy, busy, busy.  Also had the cosplay weekend which was really good but very warm.  The only nice weather we get in ages and it happened to be when we didn't really want it.  I managed to stay in my costume, but my brother only managed about 2 hours, it was really hot.  We just have rain everyday now.  Well here is the long list of horse I have been making.
First three up are non commission felties.

Here is the lovely Saxon the heavy horse.

Next is Fleur who is kind of like a Morgan horse

Here is my first strawberry roan pony Micky

Now these next models are all commissions. First is a sweet little Exmoor pony.

This is a nice heavy Clydesdale

Here is a nice grey Arab going to the same home as the Clydesdale.

Told you there was loads.  Next up is another one of my lovely Friesian.

Thew!  I think thats it.  It's been really busy but very enjoyable.  Making another commission dapple grey Arab at the moment.  I have been making a non commission donkey as well.  

Oh well hope you enjoy my latest makes.  Thank you for spending the time to pop by.  Have a good week. 

Really busy

Haven't been posting enough, sorry about that.  I have been busy with some commission felties.  I do have two made and ready to go up for sale, and one nearly finished, but just haven't had the time.

We went cosplaying at the weekend.  It was far to hot to be in costume, but I did manage ok.  My brother couldn't last very long before he started to over heat.  It was a really good weekend. It is so nice to have some nice weather after all the rain we have had. I love the heat.

Well when I have caught up with my orders I will post pics.  Hope everyone is enjoying the heat wave and looking forward to the Jubilee.

First foal of spring

Very busy week this week.  Not much sewing has got done.  Have managed to finish my mare and foal, plus a commission order so not to bad. I have made the first foal this year.  I thought that it would be great for spring to have a couple of foals.
Well without further ado here are my new makes.
Up first are Savannah the mare and Sky the foal

And here is a very hairy cob vanner again.  This is a commission.
