Softie bugs!

I've been busy this week trying to finish up those UFO's for the Queen of Arts show in two weeks. These little "bugs" may need feet...yes or no? They can be pin cushions or just little softies to play with.

Got in a quick visit to the Art Clinic in Solvang. Always fun to visit with the art girls (Sukey and Syd) and see what everyone is up to. We walked over to the new store in town with some great art supplies. A new yarn and fabric store is coming too. More temptation!
Had a good sandwich from the new Fresco shop then back over the mountain for Justin's guitar lesson. Lots of driving this week...

Kitty photos...Henry napping....and

She-ra staying cozy on my hooked rug.

Lots more to show you but most things are not quite done yet....
tomorrow is the Farmers Market and maybe Art From Scrap- as if I need any more stuff!

For the Softie-bugs, how about trying thick wool yarn french knots in the position of feet?

They're very cute!

Ack -- I love the little bugs!!

So CUTE! Little feet would be awesome.

Fitzy has a good idea there. Or, you could have fun with yarn wrapped pipe cleaners sewn in place. Striped legs.

Those bugs are lovely - yes I think they would be even lovelier with feet!! You could cut them out all together from one piece of fleece and just sew it under the belly!

But they surely are sweet as they are too Mary!

Those cute little bugs d make a fun matching game for children maybe?
If you had two of each colourways and design they could be 'found' and matched up.
Theyre lovely!
