About four months ago I sculpted a head for a doll. When I looked at the sculpt, her coy expression reminded me of the girl from Jungle Book. Remember The Jungle Book? Remember the ending? The Walt Disney movie ends when Mowgli smitten by the girl from the man-village follows her into the village. I have named my doll Shanti after the character from the movie. She is work in progress as I have yet to make her hand embroidered skirt, a blouse, and a few accessories.
Fabric for Shanti's skirt. I am working on the hand embroidery.
A few weeks ago, I made this pincushion while watching a movie. I have always wanted to make a huge felted pincushion and here it is! I used felting needle to felt in yellow, orange, red and green colored wool.
My daughter wanted to make one too when she saw me playing with mine. She used pieces of felt sheets we got from the craft store to make some of those blue, mangenta, and purple flowers.
