Being crafty indeed *g*
Apr. 28th, 2023 06:39 pmAfter having made an extended food run for the next 4 or so days (necessary, as shops will be closed on May 1), I bit into the sour apple, as we say in Hungarian, and started working on the actual book to the finger puppets.
It is a tiny bit complicated, as the felt page bases will be sewn onto cotton fabric backgrounds, for this will be a folding textile books, but I've cut out most of the elements and fixed them with double-sided tape. There's still a lot of detailed work to do before I can actually sew them together, but at least I can be fairly certain that they will come together, eventually. *fingers crossed*
It is supposed to look like this:

We'll see how much similarity will be there in the end. ;))
I also cut out some more parts for the Weihnachtswichtel I'm planning to make for friends and for the Christmas fair. Now I've got 10 of the little guys cut out and even their beards sewn on. I'll work on them bit by bit in front of the telly.
Other than that, we ate leftover soup with Vienna sausages that I bought in the morning and watched some telly. I also typed up some more of Chapter 8 of "A Stitch in Time". If I keep up with that, I might be able to post the new chapter to
otherworlds_lib and SoA during the weekend.
And now I'm taking the rest of the evening off, playing Solitaire and watching The Great Kiwi Bake-Off!
