Christmas mouse

Hello, sorry for my long absence from blogging. I haven't stopped crafting though and now its October I am in full Christmas mode (a little early I know, but I cant help it i just love Christmas!) I have lots of new Christmas projects to share with you and here's the first. Here's a little mouse I spent yesterday making he is adorable with his cute little outfit, stripey top and little ears.

Rag Doll

Sorry for my lack of posts recently. I have been so busy what with finishing uni, graduating and starting my new job as a designer I havent had time to blog much. However I still have been busy creating. This little lady is my first attempt at a rag doll (and the first time I have used my sewing machine in a few years). Shes so cute I love her hair. Her cute outfit is a great way of using up lots of scraps of material and its great to mix and match lots of colour and patterns. Enjoy.

Graduation

Yesterday was my graduation day. It was a wonderful day of celebration and it was lovely to see everyone from my course again. All our hard work over the last three years was definitely worth it. I also start my new job as a designer next week!

Degree 2:1

Today I finally received my degree classification. I'm so pleased to have received a 2:1 in BA Graphic Communication from Northampton University.

Endangered Birds of Britain

My final major project for my graphic communication degree focused on the increasing number of Endangered Birds in Britain. The design focused on making the birds easier to identify by using flat vectorised illustrations. Books and greetings cards were produced to inform and create awareness of the birds. These two posters were also part of the campaign and were featured in my recent show.

Felt monkey

Yes another felt creation. This time its a cute yellow monkey with a beret. He is very small so his arms, legs, feet and hands were a bit fiddly to make. Enjoy!

Felt girl with hood

So I seem to be making a lot of felt characters recently. They are just so quick and fun to make so here's another one to share with you. This little felt girl has a cute red riding style hood and cute big eyes.
