The Petite Purse Kingdom

Welcome to the ~ Petite Purse Kingdom~ 
I believe every little princess would enjoy a petite purse to tuck her treasures in. 
They will be available in my Etsy shop by tomorrow. 

Below are a line of children's purses I have designed ...Crocheted and lined with cotton material and hand stitched... All animals have been needle felted on front. No patterns were used.
They truly are one-of-a-kind.

The photo below was my first one... This I will keep.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I did in their creation.

#1

I have weaved ribbon  through the top to close, and also through the handle strap.




#2 Little duck




 #3 Little lamb.  One of my favorites.






 #4  Meadow green with a little squirrel.





 #5  Blue Bunny 





#6 Spring flower
Leaves and center of flower were needle felted.

 This month has been very productive... It is a good feeling, no?
I crocheted  Lollipop,  6 purses,  a baby blanket and hat for my niece and a little spring cleaning.
Now on and forward...
I hope you all are enjoying the last days of the month..  Something tells me this year is going to fly by. Thank you so much for taking time to visit...  Enjoy your weekend.

Lollipop the Lamb

Hello, my name is Lollipop.... Will you sing along with me?


 Ah the sweet sound of music

Quite the profile, no?


 I'm in deep thought here.. forgot the words to the song... How does it go again?


 I am 10 inches when I am seated.. Well, when I sit up straight, that is.

Hello dear friends... Can you tell I am enjoying myself...  This is Lollipop the lamb..  Crocheted, stuffed, needle felted, she is as soft as can be, and oh so cuddly.   
Thank each and every one of you for always being so kind to visit and leave such thoughtful notes.
Wishing you all a beautiful week ahead... 
Now I have this song stuck in my head.. haaaa

Happy New Year dear friends!

My wish is that you all had a very joyful and peaceful Christmas and New Year... I have not been able to be at the computer for awhile, know I have missed much..

. This past week I have been thinking about how enriched my little world has been with all of you in it...  Thank you so much for always being so kind with your words and sharing your days in your part of the world..  Another year of enjoyment visiting you all.

A few weeks before Christmas,  I thought I would try to incorporate crocheting with my needle felting.   I found the results interesting, and most enjoyable... This is how Wesley the Weasel  came to be.
Four skeins of yarn, and a little needle felting for details..  I did not make a pattern, nor count crochet stitches, so the changes of me making another Wesley are slim... I just started crocheting and kind of winged it, as it were...  He is very cuddly, filled with fiber fill.   Wesley is rather a large, and must say odd Weasel, measuring about 16" seated..    I have become quite attached to him and not sure if I will put him up for adoption.


Wesley 
 16" seated






Then of course,  I had to make him a wee  friend...
 Please meet  Mr. Nibbs 
5 1/4" tall





Wesley and Mr. Nibbs






And last but certainly not least, 
  I would like you to meet
 Cinna Bun
Now available on Ebay
7 inches seated, if she could stand on her skinny long legs she would measure 13".  She does set by herself due to her bushy tail... "



I am anxious to visit you all, and will do my best very soon..
Love and blessings,
Penny and Bebe


And a very warm hello to my new readers!
