Fishing set - Day 287-288

Limited time and energy. Sketched out the ideas for a fish set, and then started to stitch the next day. I decided to use velcro instead of the traditional magnets, but so far have a pattern glitch. I thought the velcro would work on the felt, with a little help from the velcro eye. It does work a little bit, but takes a bit of effort to get the fish attached. requires a swish, linger and rub type movement to attach enough to lift the fish.
Swear words of your choosing can be added here!! Maybe the universes punishment for still being slightly craft crazy after xmas and not taking a break.

Fishy Cross stitch - Day 258

Quick pattern I'm trying to get right for a certain pressie. 
So far this is the plan, now just need to plan colours.

Puffed goldfish - Day 22

Following yesterdays origami, I thought I'd try this puffed up fish. This is blown up a bit to make it a fuller shape.
Blowing it up was quite tricky, but I will put the pattern aside for a potential school activity. I can picture a whole school of fish hanging up around the place. I wonder how big we could make a fish? :)
