the ultimate woodsman...

Meet the latest plush fellow in the shop.  

The Lumberjack! 

Likes: flannel shirts, sharp axes, hot (very hot) coffee, watching the sun come up, and the smell of wood

Dislikes: rusty axes, cold coffee, uncomfortable shoes, soggy sandwiches, and hornets

I've been playing with the idea for this plush for a while and recently came across some sketches I made earlier in the year for this outdoors man.  I discovered the red/black plaid fabric in a mystery box of fabric I have in my closet that still has not been probably unpacked from our move almost 3 years ago.  The box mainly contains plaids and thicker fabrics I often don't work with much.  Needless to say, when I came across this swatch of fabric I knew it was time to finally make the lumberjack a reality.  

Now all he needs is a plush axe!

Here's a new one....or three

I've recently been creating more clutches.  I used to make a lot of these, but took an unintentional break.  Here's three of my latest.  (Of course, they all feature trees!  Nothing unusual there!)



I love this aqua canvas.  The color makes everything really pop out, especially browns, which I use a lot of.
