Souris en mouvement ballet troupe

                                               Up on the toes ladies..

Watch your form

  Everyone hold your
 heads high


Fix that tutu


Very good 
nice and straight



All together now..


I hope you enjoyed the ballet...   I had such fun when each one came alive from the wool.. All the members of this dance troup were needle felted in the finest  natural wool.. (Thank you again dear Dore) Their tutu's are merino wool in rainbow colours.  Each one has a pink satin corded tail.. I inserted a wire inside the cord for stability.  The Ballerinas in peach, green and pink are available on ebay at this time.
 The other 2 dancers are in my Etsy shop..

Thank you so much for your visit..
Wishing you all a beautiful weekend.
Love and blessings,
Penny

    OH.MY. GOODNESS!!!!! ANITA, WHERE ARE YOU??? (Sleeping soundly, I'm sure...hee)
    DEAREST PENNY!!! I just stopped by to say hello, and was welcomed with not only some of my favorite music, but this MAGIC you have created!!
    You are AMAZING! I am giggling and smiling, and what a most delightful way to usher in sweet slumber...with sugarplum fairy mice dancing in my head...you are an angel, Penny!!
    Can't wait till our dear friend sees this brilliant performance...
    Thank you, beautiful Penny!!!
    Love to you,

    I AM HERE IRINA! And yes, I was sound asleep on the couch and had to come to see if the ballet dancers were ready; I had heard there were rehearsals and that MISS PENNY'S DANCE STUDIO was the hottest place in town!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO I AM LOVING THIS, PENNY!!!! Like dearets Irina, I am smiling and chuckling from ear to ear because magic has been made over there chez Penny! What can I say but that I wish I could get the WHOLE LOT OF MICE! Tea Rat is beside himself and is yanking on my pyjama leg, begging me to invite every single pretty mouse to come live with us.

    My goodness, you never quit Penny, NEVER! OK, via email now....this is too cute for any words. LOVE LOVE LOVE! teeheee...Miss Penny, you are the strictest ballet teacher I have ever had, but look at the form on those mice!

    (((((HUGS)))))) MY DEAR !! Anita

    I HAD TO COME BY AGAIN and I am just going to do it.....I am going to steal (teehee) a photo and put it on my sidebar under Momma G. I have to. This is too brilliant!! LOVE ! Anita

    Oh Penny, this little post could be a sweet book!!!! Must I say that Tea Rat is drooling? Don't let him into the theatre or else he will pull that same stunt he did for Miss Moussie's Travelin' Show....remember how Bebe had to gently push him off stage, for he had kicked off his boot and ran down and took over the microphone? teehee....well, if he saw this bevy of beautiful ballerinas, he would get on that stage IN A TUTU!

    LOVE YOU!

    O, oh, oh!
    Penny my dearest I am honored to have been given a ticket to this beautiful show of DANCE!

    I also am honored you make mention of the wool I gifted to you, I am delighted that so many creatures are brought to life with the wool and your hands.

    I am going to have to go see whats in your etsy perhaps I will order one for my daughters Christmas Theatre'
    I was wondering if you can do her Tutu in grey as well her tail,Perhaps you could create her with the grey inside ears as well, the pose heads high, the pink one, just a thought to go along with our natural home of grey, white, and creme'

    its a beautiful show, so theatrical.

    xoxo

    Hello, dear friend...I hope all is cozy in your corner of the world!
    Yes, Penny, the first comment did come through...but it was on the Witty blog. Sometimes I think I'm a little nuts to deal with three blogs...but it's so much fun!
    I love that music as well, thank you! The entire Putamayo series is quite wonderful...
    Well, what can I say here, except that I do not think I could part with these precious ballerinas...I would want to play with them all day!!! Magic, magic, magic...
    Love to you,
    - Irina :)

    Oh my, what a nice little moment in time. As I was scrolling down, I kept thinking, she keeps changing her tutu and I never knew a ballet was going on. I enjoyed the show! You never disappoint, you are full of warm and fuzzy moments that make the heart very glad indeed.
    How in the world do you ever kiss them goodbye?

    Oh Penny,
    These are just darling. And they look so real! However do you make them stand like that? The colors on each tutu are very pretty, but purple is my favorite color, so I love that one. You are truly an artist, and I love coming over here to see what you have created next.

Thank you precious friend for your comments and yes, I do believe that I shine best in this area, or at least, my passions shine..there is a lot of work to do before I can ever attempt to show my work to a publisher, but I am working on it NOW.

    Love, love, love. These are adorable as usual, Penny.
    Been meaning to stop by for days now but had several bloggy goodies I needed to ship and a magic apron that has me wrapped up in all sorts of kitchen concoctions at the time before I must send it on its way again. ;)
    Wishing you a beautiful day, love.
    XOXO's,
