Zombie Felties....

A friend got me this book, Zombie Felties, for my birthday, I thought it was a very odd thing to write a book about! There are 16 patterns for making a whole array of zombies, so if the undead and sewing are your kind of thing, I am sure you will love it.

I tried my hand at the Vampire Zombie, the instructions were easy to follow and the finished zombie was brooch sized. I think it would be fun to enlarge the patterns and make them into stuffies too! This one got turned into a badge for a birthday card - because admit it, who doesn't love getting a badge on a birthday card?

Are you a feltie or zombie fan? I don't mind hanging out as a zombie but I watched about 3 minutes of the first episode of The Walking Dead and it scared the bejeebers out of me! 

Parts Of A Flower Felt Board

***OK, I KNOW there is a spelling error on here, I have made a new card to replace it!***

This was another easy project, I used the wooden flower puzzle as a template and although it involved more cutting it didn't take me long. Again, I printed the labels and stuck them onto sticky-backed felt.

After he did the wooden puzzle and then put the labels on there too, I can see myself making these for other 'parts of...' activities.

A quick word about felt. I have two felt stashes, one is the cheap acrylic felt the other is wool blend (usually 70-80% wool).

The cheap acrylic felt is great for projects like this one or the counting but if you are going to make things like felt food or purses then go for the better quality wool blend.

The cheap stuff bobbles and doesn't last well in comparison, I learnt this the hard way!
