Frogs and Control

This little frog is in our back yard (our garden is made up of a tiny yard, then up some steep steps to a decking area, then up three more steps to the grassy gardeny part-the wild part at the moment!) There is a pond at the back and during the rain the little frogs and slightly bigger ones like this, make it down to the yard. Then I spend ages trying to catch them and take them back to the pond.

This is a felty green man, made for Joan, my Dad's wife after she saw my felty face. I have control over needle felting which I like. I don't have control over computer software, or people supposed to be delivering that software, or the council and their recycling sacks, which I don't like. So today I choose felty faces and painting.

Plastic Frogs

I have seen toy frogs that look like this and so was impressed with the reality of these. A few of the Polish Papercuts which were beautiful. I sped round them at small lively boy speed but still managed to enjoy them as did the small lively boy!

The older ones were made with sheep shearing scissors can you believe.
