Flock!

Lavender petite mouse!

another cute 3inch long pocket-pet made from tactile Sassy mini bear fabric and some hand-dyed wool-felt ears and tail!



Her Beady eyes are glass, and I twisted a strip of the wool felt to make a yarn-like tail!



She would like to meet Blue mouse, so is off to find him!

Everyone wants to play!

Should we go shopping? says a fun-loving raggy rat!



Raggy rats and a seemingly abandoned shopping trolly ... i told those chickenpants to park it properly, but did they? no!



My turn, give us a push!

family ... chickenpants family fun!

the chicken pants family are off to shop chez The Raggy Rat ...



i got this fun trolley off ebay, and cut up a business card to make the advert for the front of it ... it even has the pull out seat for the baby ...



and just like the real thing, you can have a sneaky joy ride round the car park, before you have to go and get your trolley token back!



i am going to have some fun using this for photoshoots ...

Spitfire, the mini-lamb ...

Spring time is just around the corner ... and with it this years batch of lambs, which made me want to paint a picture of one of last springs cutest!



Spitfire, photographed by Ivan. I began to get to work with coloured pencils and a few pastel sticks, remembering a little runt that died suddenly, last September.



and suddenly, there he was, with his distinctive ears glowing in the sunshine!



and Daisy was inspired to recreate Spitfire too, and here is he being sniffed by three rats!
