It's all relative


 There was a parade in my garden today,
  albeit a tiny one.
It was the festival of  new heaters, lovely lunches and hairy dogs.
Even though the tallest participant was only 8 inches high
it felt like a big deal.

(The fabric winner is Chris The Quilter - and that deserves a tiny parade too)

    They are impossibly cute, want to make them all! What sort of felt/fabric do you use Jodie? I used a very thin wool blend felt to make some of your rabbits and I was not a happy camper with it's pilling and general untidiness after a few hugs from my daughter. Obviously needs to be sturdier!!

      Hi Tam, I use 100% pure new wool felt. i buy it from Winterwood, a store in Melbourne. they are also online. once you use it, you will never use anything else. it is sturdy and beautiful.

    Good thing the resident hairy beast didn't scare off the tiny parade of darling critters.

    I can't think of a better way to celebrate new heating than having a teeny tiny parade - they're adorable :)

    um, Finn(the doctor!) sent a text to my hairy dog complaining that he wasn't invited to the parade party....animal psychologist has been called to make a 'welfare check' on poor Finn. ;p
