Not the best hippo in the world, I admit.
(He's jumping in the water, thus the splosh)
So I made a hippo toothbrush, that was fun!
Dirty turtles need baths.
Who indeed?
A jelly fish and a stafish!

A quiet book for a little girl
I was asked to make something for a little girl who loves hippos and turtles and the contrary-poppy inside of me decided to make a quiet book, because that's totally a quick and easy thing to pull together.

Pooh and a mudblood
Firstly here's a Winnie the Pooh for a little girl in Brighton.
I would have made him out of sewn felt rather than needle felted as he would have been more squishy and play with-able, but I didn't have any felt in the correct colour. (How is that possible, I have so much felt?!)
I only just had enough wool roving for him even, and his ears a little bit smaller than I would have gone with if I'd had a bit more. No more Winnie the Poohs for me during lockdown!
And Hermione Granger for her sister. I think her hair is a bit long but I thought I would the hairdressing for the recipient.
I even ran out of pink felt so she has a needle felted head. I quite like it!

Doozerville
This doozer construction site took over a year to come into being from start to finish and about another 3 months to get photographed! I made the doozers and Dan made the radish stick construction - a painstaking job.
There's the foreman shouting his orders. The little doozer on the left is his daughter, she's a little too young to be there really and especially so high up, but she so wanted to see her dad at work, and now she is a little worried about the doozer dangling from the crane.
Standing on the bottom, from left to right, you have a doozer with a hammer busy doing what doozers do, two doozers carrying doozer sticks to the construction site being stewarded by a third and a little chap with a screwdriver minding his own business.
"Out of the way, coming through!"

And let's just leave you with a close up of the foreman's daughter. Look, she's got oversized boots on, she's so little!

Totoro
Nothing special, but to use up some grey wool I made a little totoro.
