Looking like Snow in November

I am busy getting ready for my open studio tour at the end of November. Every year I say I am going to get all this done in the summer and not rush around but it never seems to work out that way. Here are some deflated snow people in progress. I have gotten a lot of mileage out of this vintage popcorn chenille bedspread. I am almost at the end of it but it has yielded a nice population of snow people!And all finished....
Here are this year's troupe of Snow People posing for their photo op... they are quite cooperative.

I made a snow lady this year and I love her pink cashmere neck ruffle.


This guy reminds me of an old college sports fan. Making his wool felt top hat took me longer than I thought it would.




I like the way his head turned out... they all end up with their own personality. His neck ruffle is made from a vintage crepe paper Hawaiian lei.

Your snow people are great-the texture of the chenille is perfect isn't it! They look good all lined up, ready for anything the winter may bring!

These are so good, they look really like they could get up to tricks, sort of naughty but huggable
Good Luck
