@roler sent me this awesome Stardew Valley themed hoop.
For those that haven’t heard of it Stardew Valley is a video game where all the art is pixelated. You are a farmer and early in the game you get to choose a pet dog or cat. My farmer has a cat of course!

Roler did a great job of getting that pixelated look. I’m super impressed how she cut felt into such tiny pieces and worked with it and got it to look right. Anything less than an inch big and I can’t manage.

Yay, I’m so glad you like it! The pixelated look was a new technique for me but I really love how it turned out and will probably do it again! :slight_smile:

I received from @saintcady today. I opened this awesome hoop, that is needle-felted (I love needle-felting❤) of a barn owl peeking out of a tree cavity.

But wait! There was a teeny tiny package inside the big package… and what the heck could it be… but… a miniature version of the larger hoop! I am smitten. This is my first dollhouse-sized hoop and now I am hooked. Great, now this is another thing that I will have to collect. :laughing:

Thank you for these. They are wonderful. :blush:

I love that layered technique with the owl peeking through! And that tiny hoop is adorable!

That owl is great, and a miniature hoop! Great minds think alike, now that my partner has received, I can say that I made a miniature hoop as well as the regular one. Although not duplicate like these awesome ones

Two beautiful hooplas! :smiley: And a nice card, some tea (which I havent had a sip of yet, maybe tonight?)
Thank you so much Edel, they are lovely! :smiley:

@edel where did you find that tiny hoop?

AliExpress, but I have two left, I can send one if you’d like?

Edit: you’re my partner for the 4*6 swap, and I’m sending out today, so I’ll pop one in the envie

I received from @geekgirl!


It’s a Settlers of Catan board! Isn’t it beautiful?? I love the colors, textures, and precision of the perfectly tessellating hexagons and their blanket stitch borders. Thank you SO much! XD

Also, I just finally moved into my new place, and I’ve started the long task of getting all my fun wall art up and on display! Here’s the wall right over my work desk right now. There may be some familiar pieces here! XD
