Hi,
Well, guess what, my husband brought home a baby field mouse (really small, probably close to 2 days old or something). It is so cute. We still haven't figured out whether it is a male or female. Every 2 to 3 hours we take turns feeding him/her. She (because I want it to be a girl) wiggles around and kicks out her little legs. It is almost impossible to find her little mouth and feed her with a paintbrush.
I've had lots of mice before when I was a kid and have had two boys, so it makes it easier for him; as he hasn't had experience with either mice or human babies. :)
My felt dress is actually Llama or Alpaca so that is why it didn't felt as completely as I wanted it to. So back to the fulling process once again. I will be using my round paddle I got from Heart Felt Silks to finish the job. Then I want to embroider and bead the front before presenting it. I'm also going to try my hand at 3D Felt Sculptures. I think it might be really fun.
For all of you who are tired of waiting for my process, I apologize. I have Fibromyalgia, a very painful condition and Chronic Fatigue, so I am working around them the best that I can. As I have had both conditions for a long, long time, I'm getting better at doing what I love Feltmaking and Fiber Art in a faster way.
Thanks to those who choose to follow my blog!! Have a great weekend!
