Head crab. Half life.

Another felted friend for my partner.



Fully fanged,


From the series Half life

Portals Talking turret in fibre.

Well there is a  past project. This was made for my partner Alan he obsessed with the Portal and have life series. I did felt this with the intent on squirrelling it away for his birthday. Alas I was so chuffed when I finished it I had to present it to him as soon as he returned from work.
I took these pictures out side and learnt a lesson felt looks much better photographed in natural sunny light. (Which is a rare thing in Scotland)
 Guns Out. I tried to make the turret as true to the game as I could. It was a moderately simple felt the gun did prove a bit tricky. The only issue I really had was the amount of needles breaking due to the flimsy about of felt between the needle and the thick wire frame.

Ok, let's get Started.


Now if you a little bit strange like me and when you check out someone's blog you always check you 1st entry. Well I always do I like to see how people start themselves of and what tone they set up.

Well then this leaves me in the really awful situation of MY 1st post. Great.

1st,Hello to anyone that has bothered to try read this.

2nd I am not a writer at all. In fact I am dyslexic so pointing out any typos that spell check has been too confused be to notice is appreciated (please not to much mocking).

3rd, Felthings; Sort of a play on words, Yes I do work in felt and fibre but also meant as "felt" things emotion etc (did I mention I am a rubbish writer). Post pictures of anything I have been working on be it for sale or personal projects gift etc. I will post mainly about craft related stuff. Appogies if I do have the odd personal post.

Over the next few days I will be posting past projects to fill this blog.
