Score!
I read a lot of blogs (thank goodness for google reader!) and of course, I read a lot of craft blogs. In doing so, I come across lots of contests and giveaways. I don’t really enter that much unless it is something I am really, really into (I feel if you enter a contest just to win something free, it just ruins your chances for that future contest in which you really want to win). Most of the time, I don’t end up winning but guess what?! Yes! I won!! As I mentioned, I recently got into felt and making stuffies and appliques (soon) and came across the felt-o-rama blog and of course added it to my google reader. I entered their contest and I was so surprised and happy to find out I won!! It was a stash of their eco-felt and it came today!! Wow!! It was a big box!!! (Thank you April of felt-o-rama!)
I was actually expecting the shorter, smaller box. Woohoo!! What a score! See all the yummy felt goodness inside? Did I say WOW?
And here are some of the fake food I’ve made so far for Sienna. Some cookies, a petit four (although I think it’s too big to be called that) and the cake with the whipped topping that I didn’t quite put on top (my first one). Yves was asking for some fruits and veggies for her and used a pear pattern in my Tasty Crochet book for that instead of using felt. It’s pretty huge in comparison! I also made a bagel half but Sienna was playing with it this morning and we left it in the car!
Ok, so I do have to practice some more before my pieces will look as nice as this artist’s! Amazing!
Oh you lucky duck! I love felt food. I can never have enough felt in the house. I come home and that husband’s like “More felt?! What about the pile you already have?” “But I don’t have these colours!” I say like an annoying teenager.
I am jealous of all that felt! I have never worked with it before, but I dream about using it to make all sorts of cute things! 🙂
Wow lisa those felt stuffies are awesome! they came out great!
Congrats on winning!!! I’ve always wanted to do felt crafts, there so cute. Have fun with all those colors!
