In all my busy-ness I had almost totally forgotten that I had some ornaments in another Lark book, this one called 'Tis the Season to Be Felt-y" by Kathy Sheldon and Amanda Carestio, those champions of fun felt projects.
I don't do a lot of felt sewing of this type any more but looking through the book made me want to rummage around in my supplies and set aside some quiet time to stitch.
There are lots of adorable and retro-inspired projects in this book but I was tasked with making something a little earthier and muted. Working with recycled garment wool that I dyed, I made little pears and a partridge to hang in the tree.
I'll be taking these little guys into the gift shop at work.
If you'd like a copy of the book, Amazon has it for a great price right now. (and if you choose The Crossing Arts Alliance as your charity for Amazon Smile, a wee fraction of a percent of your purchase price will go towards supporting the arts in my area. Thanks!)
Have a super day, all.

The first ornaments I've been tempted to make in a long time! Lovely :)
I've seen this book on Sew Mama Sew. They are giving away a couple copies I think. I didn't know you were in it! Lovely!
That's awesome! Congrats to you! Your ornaments are super cute!
I love your ornaments & I cherish mine.
