Rainbow Dancer

At our first visit to Steiner playgroup I noticed the beautiful felt horses and immediately decided that I was going to make one for R.J. The project took it's place on my list of things-to-do but now, 6 months later, it is finally complete. I look forward to making many more felt toys for my daughter, and I think I am going to make a mermaid next.



Rainbow mohair for the mane and tail, and a tiny rose quartz on the forehead.




Wet felted and hand-stitched with love x

I found the pattern for the horse at http://simmy.typepad.com/echoesofadream/2007/05/thank_you_so_mu.html
and bought the material online at Winterwood Steiner Inspired Toys . I took some felting and stitching tips from YouTube and WeeFolkArt.
