Past-birthday thanks, pre-Christmas orders

[wiseheart]

So, my dear friends, my annual birthday party is over. It was great fun, thanks to everyone who participated. Those who didn't - you don't know what you've missed, it's your loss entirely.

In the spirit of Hobbit-y gift giving, I've promised to make felt ornaments for those who participated in the party and would want one. I've just gone through all posts and noticed the following wishes:

1 - a black cat for espresso_addict;
2 - a ginger cat for lindahoyland;
3 - a penguin for solanpolarn;
4 - a snowman for elmey;
5 - an owl for badly_knitted;
6 - one snowflake for artemis10002000;

Was there anyone else who had a wish and I didn't notice? Please, tell me, and I'll add you to the list. Also, if you haven't asked for one yet but would like to do so, you can do it until the end of October, as this is more time-consuming than stitching cards and I'd need at least a month to finish all of them.

Only party guests, please. Those who cared enough to come, are more than worthy a gift. ;)

Sorry I didn't get back to join in the fun, but between two doctor's appointments and a week-long writing challenge, your party got lost in the shuffle =(

I'm glad it was a good one though! Belated Happy Birthday!

No problem! It doesn't sound as if you'd been in the party mood anyway. I hope you're getting better.
So, take a look at the felt links when you have the time and if you have a wish, tell me till the end of October.

That's sweet of you! I'll take a look, your felt ornaments are lovely. I used to make felt animals, three dimensional ones. They were fun to do.

Actually, I believe you made some owls - I would love an owl, if that's okay.

No, I haven't much felt like partying. I still have to have more tests because the doctor still has no idea what's wriong with me. Hopefully we'll get to the bottom of it soon.

You should check out the Halloween charms I made, see if you'd like one =)

I've been trying to keep myself distracted with writing and crafting.

One owl duly noted. Any colour preferences?

Your charms are very beautiful. We don't have a particular Halloween tradition over here, but I did like the one with the knotwork muster in the second series - does it have any meaning? I'd be happy with that one, as long as it doesn't have any symbolism that would clash with Christianity. I find that I'm still a believer, if no longer formally religious.

[bk_forever]

No, I don't mind what colour. Surprise me.

The knotwork is a Triquetra. I looked up the symbolism and this is what I learned:

The triquetra stands for God the father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in a Christian view (also called the 'Holy Trinity'.) Many Pagans/Wiccans say 'it represents the Triple Goddess as the Maiden, Mother, and Crone'.

So, it has definite Christian symbolism, does that suit you? If not, I have some unicorn heads, and some mushrooms. I'm like you, still a Christian, but not formally religious.

That would do very nicely, thanks. And I do have a lovely colour combination for your owl in mind already.

[bk_forever]

Yay! I'll get it ready for posting =)

Well, damn, I missed the highlight of the party! That is sad, very sad.

Belated Happy Birthday!

There are worse losses, really. I am glad you could make it to the party at all.

So, any requests from the Kingdom of Felt?

[artemis10002000]

Actually, now that you ask, yessss.... I have been eyeing these snowflakes you posted...

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Duly noted. :)

[artemis10002000]

Awesome, thank you very much!

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Hey, that is what friends are for!

I missed the party! :-( A very happy, if belated birthday to you, dear wiseheart. Much love from me and the tiddler.

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

And we missed you very much! Without you, there were none of the casual guests coming.
You still may place a request for the Little Miss, though. Check the links in the party post.

How very kind of you! I think she would love an owl. Thank you! (Do you have our new address?)

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

I ought to have it somewhere, but if you could PM it to me it would be helpful.

Any colour preferences?
