Tenzin Cosplay

Jeremiah asked me to make a cosplay costume for him.  He showed me pics of a character from a show I've never watched...so I only had those pics as reference.  I found patterns in my collection that could be adapted to work for the costume and I am super pleased with how well it turned out!

Felting Sweater Basics and Blanket Tutorial

I have been wanting to try sweater felting for a while.  I picked up some sweaters at a thrift store about a year ago and they sat in my closet until just recently when I decided I should jump into felting.  I started with several sweaters of different textures and wool mixes to figure out what would work the best. 



After my sweaters were felted I cut them up to create a patchwork blanket.
