Hi everyone. Who's up for an Easter Challenge?
Make anything Easter-ish-
And any other Easter ideas you may have. :dance: :dance: :dance:
Easter is March 23rd.
count me in, I just finished my Easter Puppy!!
Here she is!
Hugs,
Krista
Hi Jude Please count me in.I will post as soon as I finish mine. :hug: :hug:
Wow! Kristy Your Puppy is adorable! :hug: :hug: :hug:
AAAAHHHH Krista!!!! I LOVE HER!
Mary, I look forward to your Easter creation. :dance: :dance: :dance:
I think I am going to do a bunny with big blue eyes.
Krista, she's a darling pup with or without her Easter Bonnet.
Krista, love your puppy - I just felt like making a mini so here's my little easter set of friends :)
Hugs, Catherine x
Guess I could put in Easter Bonny - which I just finished.
I actually have several Easter critters. I am working on things for a show in 2 weeks. Thank you Judi for bringing this challenge to my attention. I have been so busy that I haven't paid attention to all that's going on.
Here are a couple of my Easter babies. The first is 2 needle felted minis. They are just under 2" tall. (Photos need improvement). The second is Pato the little duckling. He is just about life size. If you have ever held a baby duck in your hand, that is about how big he is. He is made of mohair with felted bill and felt feet.
Krista, your puppy is so cute (but that's not anything new, all of your pups are precious).
Sue Ann, I just can't get my eyes off of that bunny.
Catherine, I love that little bear. The colors are adorable.
Wow everyone's creations are wonderful :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
Judi you didn't give us much warning on this one!
But I guess many would have already started something for Easter anyway.
Wonderful Easter sellection...it's amazing how different they all are...well done ladies.
Krista your puppy is wonderful...but then all your puppies are!
Ladies, I love all the Spring colors in your creations. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
NICE WORK EVERYONE. Keep 'em coming....
Sorry Sandi, you're right, not much notice on this one...so....you had better 'HOP' to it!
But a 'chick' as 'eggstremely' talented as you will have no problem at all......you know eggxactly what I mean! (sorry )
ps...I haven't started anything yet either.
Just found the Easter challenge Judi....and just finished my first ever bunny today!....it's only a little bunny at 3.5"...so here's a pic of 'Bertie Bunny'....not sure what to do with him now as not much is happening on ebay and I don't want to sell him for peanuts.....I've started another in a lovely blue sassy....will post a pic soon. I love these other Easter creations...it's wonderful how everyone's work is so different
Hugs Lynne :hug:
Well once I started Judi, I couldn't stop ... this is Bonnie Bonnet pronounced BON-AY, (as in Hyacinth Bucket being pronounced BOUQUET :crackup: ) in her beautiful Easter bonnet. Hope you think she's Easter-ish enough.
P.S. Lynne I love your bunny, he's just quirky enough to suit me to a T!
What fun creations!!!!! Mine are in the makin'!!
Everyone's creations are just amazing, them all. I am working on 2 and will show as soon as I am done.
The bigest bunny I have made is 46 inches.But then I took him apart,since I did not know what to do with him so.... big sitting :crackup:
Wow ....Mary did you take a pic of your 46" bunny before you took him apart?! I can't imagine how you stuffed something that big!
Lynne
Hi! Lynne Yes I did, He was one of my semi stuffed open bears in synthetic curly mohair, then I did not know mohair for bears existed,this was years ago, would you like to see him? I will post a picture when I find it,I know its somewhere in all the pictures.
He wasn't fat he was just skinney. I did not stuffed the torso part,but i did stuff the sides and back of it. The most that took in stuffing was the large head,very very long ears and legs and feet. I did not mind,since I was anxious to see how he was going to look like.
The Guy in the photo place wanted to display him in the store to attract customers for Easter and I let him.
I used him once for easter,putting plastic eggs inside and we would tie a hankerchief on the childrens eyes so they would not see which egg they were going to choose as a prize,some eggs had money and others had candies. We had fun :hug: :hug: :hug:
:clap: :clap:
Congratulations to you all, I just love all your creations, I've not started yet, but feel inspired.
Hugs,
Lynne
Hi! everyone :hug: :hug: this my first one I finished yesterday for this challenge.
But now that I am looking at her :photo: in here I will be making some changes just a little.
I am still working on the second one which is a little more consuming she will be a bunny girl. :hug: :hug: :hug:
Hi. Here's my Easter Challenge pieces. The bunny, Jack Rabbit is now listed on ebay and the bear, not even named yet, will be on Bid 4 Bears tomorrow for the start of the Artist Power Campaign.
Lynne, Your Easter bear is lovely. She has the sweetest expression and I love her hat.
Mary, yours also is darling. I really like how you have used colored mohair to compliment her outfit. Very Eater-ish! :clap: :clap: :clap:
Judi your bunny and bear are just so....beautiful. You are sure aritistic in designing them
I just love how you needle felt their expressions. They are sure to go to a loving home for sure.
Thank You for your comment on my bear. I didn't want to make a whole dress,cause I wanted her fur to show. I really enjoy getting the bears dressed,but its really hard to decide what they are to wear. I think it takes me more time deciding than in making them. :crackup: :hug: :hug:
