Picture this...

One blank canvas, one new paint brush, new paint, new ribbon, new rub-on words, fun pictures of the kids = my newest project:

Another project I worked on this weekend was a first.  I bought this project for Hailey but she didn't think she could do it.  It's supposed to be a felt penguin... I tried :)  Hailey wanted a fedora so that is what's supposed to be on his head.  I think it turned out OK for a first attempt.  It was kind of fun rolling the wool and poking it with a needle.  Good project for relieving stress or taking out your frustrations :)  How often can you poke something repeatedly with a needle and end up with a cute little project?  This may become my new stress reliever!!

These projects come packaged with everything you need to make an animal (even two or three).  I bought mine at Allyn Knit Shop (http://www.allynknitandspin.com/).  They are called WoolPets and they have a bunch to chose from.  Check it out... it's an easy project for anyone and you don't need to know how to knit.
