The Shy Little Grey Mouse

Linda Sue has so inspired me with her lovely felted art. So this weekend I grabbed my second-hand felting needle (courtesy of the car boot sale) and some leftover wool from Snous's blankie and made the Shy Little Grey Mouse. She might become a brooch. Or maybe not.

This is just delightful! If not a brooch, perhaps a bookmark?

I think Anne is right. Bookmark. I made a little mouse bookmark long ago out of regualr felt. Loved it then lost it. Yours is fun.

Aww- a shy little mouse. Sweet- Somebody asked me one time to make needle felted mice with catnip in them- Oh yeah right...(in your words) so the cat can tear it to shreds, what's the bloody point of that? Needless to say I have never felted a mouse for that reason- the cat might take a fancy...

Aaw, what a cutie! I like the idea of it becoming a brooch... more felting on the way then I hope?!

Oh he's rather cute! I like his little eyes! Your list below is good too. Many of the same things make me happy.

How adorable! I've been wanting to try my hand at felting also. Perhaps this weekend...
