Nothing but the Grin

I wish you wouldn’t keep appearing and vanishing so suddenly; you make one quite giddy!”
“All right,” said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.

“Well! I’ve often seen a cat without a grin,” thought Alice; “but a grin without a cat! It’s the most curious thing I ever saw in all my life!”

Cheshire Cat's Grin...My contribution to the Month of Softies on the Alice in Wonderland theme - my new Grin pin cushion, my first foray into felt and applique.

[Of course I just couldn't resist  trying the Grin with the Dog!!]

Wild Wreath

Loobylu is now running a craft oriented group show called A Month of Softies  rather in the style of Illustration Friday

Her theme for December is Holiday Hangups.  As I enjoy Xmas and my only hangup about it is being prepared on time, I did as she expected and made a hanging object.

This is a Wreath for our door, made from Australian native flowers that I saved from last year's xmas floral display.  I sprayed them gold and fixed them to a vine wreath.  The ribbon trim was left over from my xmas Red Hat.
