Knitting: Dwarf helmet and beard


This was a fun project.  The helmet pattern was originally a baby size so I had to improvise.  The beard is from Melissa Campbell's pattern: etsy.com/shop/TotallyStitching.  It's a free pattern on ravelry.  Want to make everyone in the family one now.

Quilt: Winter wallhanging

 

The flowers for this wallhanging are made out of polar fleece.  I used the pattern I found on purlbee.com/felt-flower-winter-wreath.  Instead of using 4 pieced background fabrics, I used one piece of holiday fabric that I quilted and then attached the flowers.  The pattern used a solid background which I think showed the flowers a little more than mine.
