Dorset buttons


 Second new hobby: Dorset buttons. I saw a video on Quilting Arts TV show and then watched a few YouTube videos and think I am hooked! The first one I made is on the left. I fudged the outside by doing a single crochet around the ring. The second one I made, I did it as it is supposed to be made and the outside ring took a good 45 minutes. There are so many variations to these buttons, see below.

Felting


 I began a new hobby last month. Got a couple of kits to get some decent instructions. These are my first tries
I finished this pumpkin and gave him a handlebar mustache


Here's baby Yoda. He was fun to do, gave him to a friend who loves all things Star Wars.
