More Critters

      Over the last couple of weeks I've taken a break not only from cards but also from gnomes.  However, I haven't been idle.  I've been sidelined into a quest for critter gnomes, mostly puppies and kittens.  I want to share two or three of them with you today.

      Here's the first puppy I made and my sis-in-law claimed it right away.  The body is an empty Sunny D bottle, covered in faux fur, with a pompom nose, a felt tongue, and hand tied bow.


     Next, I attempted a kitten gnome (without any pattern or sample to follow), made along the line of the shaggy puppy above but with a muzzle, whiskers, pointy ears, and a tail.



     Finally, I wanted to try another puppy but this time with a top knot.  Again, an empty bottle but this time an old medicine bottle, faux fur, & hand-tied, yarn bow.


     That's all I have for today.  Maybe I'll have something else to share early next week.

     Happy crafting.  NanaConnie
