Felt Dinosaur

When I saw this felt rabbit project from Hazelnuts my first thought was 'I reckon that could be adapted to be a dinosaur.' I was not wrong. 

I printed out the pattern provided in the original tutorial and drew extra lines to make it less bunny, more dinosaur; longer arms, bigger feet, bigger nose and a long tail.

I sewed the felt pieces together the way the tutorial suggested...

...but added spikes as I sewed the back, which the rabbit doesn't have. Bad luck bunny.

I think it turned out looking like a dinosaur! Though the head could do with some more modifications, any ideas?

Dinosaurs and Daleks

My sister's boyfriend likes dinosaurs and lego.

So for Christmas I made him a photo holder that is a dinosaur holding a block of lego!

It seemed like the natural conclusion given his two interests.

My other sister thought the dinosaur should be slightly formal so she made him a little collar and tie.

Business dinosaur likes lego...he also likes to party.

To complete the present we made some gingerbread dinosaurs.

We freehanded them as our imaginations would only be restricted by cookie cutters.

Also, there were gingerbread daleks.

He loved them!
