So after posting about not wanting to needle felt....

I had a customer contact me about some toadstools.

Since she asked so nicely I had to pick up my wool and needles and get to work.

I ended up making three.






And I loved it!

Seriously, sometimes I think all I need is a nudge. I'm not sure that I'll do much more, because I've been a bit obsessed with these little guys lately.




I saw a post over on Counting Coconuts recently where Mari-Ann had sewn up some little felt owls for her son to use in his learning activities. I was inspired to make some for my girls. I can see them being used as math manipulatives, but I know the baby girl will probably just put them in a purse, walk about the house, and talk to them. We could use them so many ways, though - memory game, math games, matching games, etc. I'm slowly sewing them up in the evenings while I watch old episodes of The Tudors on Netflix. You wish you had my rockin' life, dontcha? ;)

About Me

My Photo
A 40 something mama meandering through life with an eclectic 20 year old boy-man (the boy), a 7 year old girl (big girl) who is a ball of lightening, and a 3 year old girl (baby girl) who brightens our lives with her smiles. I'm grounded by my 40 something husband and partner (the hubster) whose quirky mannerisms brighten my days.

I've been a single mama, married mama, divorced mama, career mama, SAHM, and WAHM. There was a short time of my life when I wasn't a mama, but that was a LONG time ago!

I hold an AA, BS, and MA and most say I'm wasting them by devoting my intellectual capabilities and energy in the nurture of the wee ones that I've been entrusted to raise, but there is nothing else I'd rather be doing these days. :)

I love hearing from readers, so please share your thoughts and leave comments, too!
