One month of 2015 is almost gone, and I just realized I haven't posted any thing on this blog in ages. Since I'm going to be teaching again this year, it probably is a good idea that I have a few things here on the web to share with future students so they can see what other options there are in beaded figures.
These past months, I've been playing around with making animal doll forms. It has been a bit challenging trying to get proportions right to make my forms look more life like. I sat back and realized why am I doing that? Why not just dive deep into my sub conscious and find my inner CARTOON MUSE! It worked. I also decided to not totally encrust the doll form with beads because sometimes the fabric combinations are just too fun. So for my first in 2015 met two rats and a weird genetic hybrid mutation called a RatBit.

| Met the Country Rat. He's made of scrap fabric and felt. |

| I had fun making the County Rat's nose. |

| Is it Rabbit? Is it a Rat? No it is a RatBit |

| I just love the patterns in this fabric. Add a felted vest with a few pieces of scrap fabric for pockets AND a very saucy beret |
