My WOYWW desk looks like this....
Tilly Tea Dance has been busy putting collections together for delivery to local outlets and finishing off some of her lovely art work.
Of course, I am the gofer!
I help frame and label each piece ready for the shops.
We make a great team.
So, my crafty activity has happened away from my work desk.
When I gave Theo his set of bunnies that I showed you last week, his kindly Nanny Annie couldn't resist setting me a challenge. She rather fancied having a Mrs Tiggywinkle and Mr Todd the fox.
So this was my little effort...
I know I needed to make them look neater by using smaller needles but they will be fine as little finger bobs for Theo to make stories with. Rumour has it, they really would like a badger and maybe a squirrel - she's never satisfied, that sister of mine!!!
Have a great week.
xx Jo
you are so good to Maxine!! I am sure she really appreciates your help. she certainly learnt a lot from you with her fab work. Love Mrs Tiggwinkle and Mr Todd, too! Helen #3

love Annie's little critters. You are clever, not sure my big hands like shovels could have coped with such miniature work.

What gorgeous pictures, they are both so beautiful and Maxine is indeed so talented, and aren't you a good mum helping her out - you make a great team by the looks of it. The finger puppets are so cute and so clever and if you manage a badger and a squirrel then my admiration will know no bounds!!

If you will make such lovely little people, you should not be surprised when others put in a request for even more characters. Have a lovely week. xxx Maggie (Silvercrafter) #11
ReplyDeleteHi Jo, I read Annie's comment, seems like you have a lot of work coming up with the other characters! Maxine's work is lovely, you are a very talented family. Have a lovely week Heather x #14
ReplyDeleteHi Jo, you daughter makes the most beautiful art work and I think you do make a great team. I love your little knitted animals - that sister of yours mentioned them though she didn't say she'd like more still. Theo is going to love playing with them in Mr McGregor's garden. Hugs, Ellie x #31
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever but that much younger sister keeps you on your toes eh?! Lol. Lovely art by Max as always, I'm glad she's doing so well.

ReplyDeleteNever a truer word about a sister who knows you can ‘do’ something! Lovely new finger bobs, I bet Theo will be charmed. Lovely to see how the Tilly TD range is expanding. You are a great team, indeed.
