New Alphabet Pets & I won a contest

I have completed the second and third of my Alphabet Pets. The second one, B is for Bunny goes to Tania for choosing the name I would have used if it wasn't already being used so much. Isn't she just the cutest? She is only 1 1/4 inches tall.
The third one is a leopard appaloosa horse. All those spots were so much fun.

H is for Horse is now up for auction on Ebay. Here is a link to his auction.

And while yo are there, click on View Seller's Other Items and check out the auction for Alfred. Alfred is the winner of Third Place in an International Needle Felting contest through www.bearycheap.com. He won third after two adorable needle felted animals. I think that is great. I mean we all know how endearing cute little animals are. So, for my Alfred, just a man, to rank up there with adorable little animals is quite an accomplishment. I plan on making more Needle Felted dolls in my LIFE LIKE line, and Alfred is the first. So here is your chance to get the first in a series of needle felted collectibles and when I become famous, he will be worth lots of money. Really! Think about it. Besides, every tie you walk past him, you won't be able to help but smile back at him. So he will always make your home a happy one.

Been a while - my newest line of needle felts

I have started a new line of needle felts. I am calling them Alphabet Pets. I went to an auction and got a big box of kids blocks. I knew immediately what I wanted to do if I got them and I won the bidding. So, I came home with this idea, but couldn't think of a name. So I held a contest on my needle felting group

The name I wanted to go with was Alhapets, but when googled, there were tons of things out there with that name. So,. I went with my second choice, Alphabet Pets. The two lovely ladies whose names I chose each get an Alphabet Pet. Mary, who came up with Alphabet Pets got the one you see here. The very first one in the series. Tania, who came up with Alphapets gets the second one I am going to make.
Each one will be signed and numbered and come with a Certificate Of Authenticity. Not sure if I am going to put them on Ebay or open an Etsy store.

It isn't easy needle felting this small. Each one will be firmly felted, and glued to a block. I will be doing all sorts of animals, and will keep you posted on new ones.
