FRUITI TUTTI.


I JUICY FRUITS!

Here's a peep at my 3rd installment of FELT PLUSH FOODS. I'm obsessed!
Felt went on sale 5/$1.00 and I went buck wild at Michaels. Such a cheap DIY.
I love it!



Mr. Mango, Starfruit, Persimmon & Kiwi.
Instead of your typical apples & oranges, I'm showcasing fruits abundant in Asian/Ethnic markets.


My first pass at Mr. Mango was whack. Adding a 3rd panel of felt seemed to do him justice.



It's persimmon season! I plan to make more of these...



Starfruit, SO tedious to sew but I'm very pleased with the results.
I learned from sewing Mr. Mango... short-cutting # of panels will produce "flat" fruits.
