I finished the kangaroo from the Mabs Tyler book. She is made of wool felt and sewn on the machine.
I made her a little garland of felted beads with seed beads on them, inspired by the garland here.
Her joey is also wool felt and is hand sewn with embroidered details. He can either be tucked into the pocket or taken out and played with.
They are precious. I especially like the flower garland and the sweet little joey.
wow! I have the same book as you {found in a second hand book shop} and I am using the donkey pattern for my MOS contribution but am finding it difficult. You have done such a good job!It looks better than the one in the book, dare I say. They look great.I like the garland too.
awww… the kangy is really coool!!!!!
and ps… the fabrics from the swap is absolutely wonderful
Oh, that is so sweet. I used to live out west and there were lots and lots of roos – I loved it when I saw one with a joey in the pouch, so cute!
Oh, the kangaroo is darling! I think the garland is an especially nice touch.
wow – the colors work so well together, that is just the neatest kangaroo i have seen, awesome job! i really need to learn how to make felted beads.

SO adorable!! Amazing work, as always!
I know everyone else has already said this but I just had to chime in and say it too. That kangaroo is ADORABLE! I just love her little pouch and her baby with its sleepy eyes. So cute!
So fun!!
