Elves and the Shoemaker

Well that's what it felt like in my room a couple of weeks ago. The end of the school year was drawing ever closer and the Supply Teaching was virtually non-existent. I had a fair to prepare for so the batch making began. As  you can see, there was more than a passing resemblance to the lovely little pieces of leather in the story, when I was making my new Raggy Birds. In the top left hand corner you can see the red felt and yellow Moda fabric that was used to make the lovely little guy that went into the raffle at Candy Floss (which was a great success especially as I avoided getting my photo taken again :) ). Sadly, my camera and the lighting were against me so I don't have a picture of him to share but trust me when I say he was a cutie. His brothers and sisters made it into the light tent this morning and have now been listed, split between my Folksy and Etsy shops.
