Pheobe and her cat

Meet Pheobe and her cat.
The cat has just loved sitting in the warm sunshine on Pheobe's lap this morning, and I'm sure I heard him purring earlier!

Pheobe is a larger version of my skinny dolls, at 49cm from her head to her heels. Her dress is made from heavy weight velvety red fabric with aged, folksy ribbon and 2 vintage buttons. Her hair is wonderful ringlets of needle-felted black wensleydale fleece.

'Purrrrrfect', says the cat.

Felix the Scarecat

Here is my latest Felix (the Scarecat). He has rusty coloured, patched trousers and a heavy ticking fabric shirt, which has been aged with coffee, and completed with 2 large rusty bells.

His old label says 'May all thy hours be winged with joy, and thy veggies from crows be blessed free'.
