Please meet my little yellow chick.. I did not name her, my mind just went blank. . She stands 3 inches tall, has black glass bead inset eyes... Her little legs are wire, covered with embroidery thread.
Her core was felted with Suffolk/Hampshire cross sheep wool.. Her top coat was needle felted into the core and scissor cut..
I hope you enjoyed your stay... Thank you so much for visiting. She is available on Ebay. You may visit her auction here

Penny
Thank you Mavis Mudd for the suggestion... A brown tuff you say? Then Hannah it is!

Oh Penny...your little chick is just so precious!!
ReplyDeleteI just love everything about her!! Her feathers look like pure down, so, so soft!!
Her little legs are so darn cute!!
Her eyes are so lifelike...a signature to all of your creations!!
This one tugs at my heart strings.
Miss you on Facebook, but its just not as personal as a blog is.
I have had such blog neglect....
Well, good luck with your auction...did you have a link to your auction?
Have a wonderful week.

First of all, she is absolutely enchanting. Your work always dazzles me. And, I also wanted to thank you for your lovely comments on recent posts. I always feel so good with your kind words after you stop by!
ReplyDeleteHi Penny,
ReplyDeleteThe little chickie is so sweet and love the tufts of brown.
Also how neat the sounds of the birds - almost as if I am walking through a forest. Many thanks for visiting me and wishing you a happy new week
Sending hugs dear friend

Hi Penny! I love this baby chicken with its tiny brown crest on its head, it is so cute! You did it again, beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Ilona
I am SO late. I was out all day yesterday, but here I am .....I am naming her, PENNY. teeeheeee
ReplyDeleteBig love here....you never fail to add a sprinkle of love into all your creations that render them beyond art. Oh how I am enchanted...I'm coming back but must go to work now...LOVE!
She reminds me of Easter, Penny. She's adorable. I am noticing your fairies in the background. I am always quick to notice fairies, as I love them myself.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering what you will name your sweet chick. Have a blessed week, Penny.
love,

Dear Penny - what a sweet little chick. Now for her name...don't keep me guessing what you will call her. After all she is just too cute to not have a name. Take care and thank you for sharing her with us. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteOwwww she is so so so cute !!!...lovely !!!...x !
ReplyDeleteHi Penny, what a beautiful piece you made. Hug AM
ReplyDeletePenny,
ReplyDeleteOMGosh you've done it again with your creative vision and magical hands. That accent of brown makes me smile. Perfectly charming.
Hugs,
Vera
No name? No name?! Oh, my dear Penny, as head chicken lady of the Hollow, I must strenuously suggest that you give her an identity immediately! You've no idea what damage you can inflict on such an innocent soul by referring to her as "HEY Chick! Here CHICK CHICK! YO, CHICK!" Might I suggest the lovely name Cornelia; that is what I named my 12th child, fresh from the egg shell... or perhaps Hannah, the name of my 36th little chicklet, she too, had a little brown thatch of feathers on her tiny noggin.Just suggestions of course, coming from an expert mother and author of award winning Chicken How to Books.... Sincerely, Mavis Mudd, gossip columnist for Hopalong Hollow Gazette.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mavis, I had no idea I could stress out this little chick by not giving her a name.
DeleteWell, if your Hannah chick has a brown tuff on her tiny noggin then Hannah it is!
Thank you!
Oh Dear, that Mavis Mudd is such a buttinsky! But seriously Penny, you have captured the essence of a baby chick, truly. I have known many and when I was trying to make them with mohair, I just couldn't get the stance right; you know, with the protruding little chest and the pushed out forehead. She is perfect, whatever you name her.
ReplyDeleteHi Jeri,
ReplyDeleteMavis a buttinsky? Oh heavens no!
She is no longer nameless, thanks to dear Mavis Mudd. She looks like a Hannah, don't you think? teeehee
Thank you for your kind words... I actually had to do some re-work on her to get her stance right.. It was a bit of a challenge.. I LOVE your work.. Bird, chick, bun bun, all of them!
teeeeheee...that Mavis is a natural reporter...she knows the ropes and has barnyard know-how! HANNAH IS THE PERFECT NAME!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh I had to come back and I saw you came by too....it is with sheer delight that WE ALL come to see another unveiling of a precious creation this long-awaited spring. I wonder what is next for you dear heart? I can't wait!
Awwww! Penny dear,
ReplyDeleteMy daughter Hannah, yes her name if you recall is Hannah. Well she had to raise a baby yellow chick last year for a project, it was so cute and would follow her around like she was the mama.
Your felted chick named Hannah is a soft fluffy reminder of that time.
It's so adorable, and a great Easter basket piece for next year.

Dore.
Thank you Penny dear for taking the time to visit me and always showing your love.

Blessings

Goodness, Hannah looks real! Isn't it funny how they make us know their name? Thank you, Penny, for your lovely comment on my doll blog.
ReplyDeleteHi Penny! Finally...I'm here, and can comment. I am having internet problems this morning, this is a third attempt. I .guess third times a charm! and..so is little miss chickadee herself Hannah! I love the feet, covered in thread! Her little brown tuft is perfect. You really have a way of making them come to life..with FELT no less! She's truly adorable Penny, as you are. Thank you for visiting my blog, Your comments often make my mornings wonderful! I have posted another faerie just today. I hope you will come and take a peek. XOXOX much love, Christel
ReplyDeleteHi Penny,
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little chick. You truly do have magic in those crafty fingers of yours. Beautifully done my friend. A great big hug.
