Contest alert!


This little guy is the result of a sewing machine test from the other day, and I thought it was fun, despite the half finished seams and randomly mismatched thread. I'm thinking I might make some proper varieties for Etsy, but then there's the issue of what to call them. Anyone have any ideas?

Something short and cute oughta do it, but I'm drawing a blank.

Submissions are welcome--I will profusely publicly thank whoever submits the winner!

Steph, what's sort of material is it made out of? It looked felt-like, so I was thinking "Felty" for a name, but then I don't think they are felt?! hmm.... still thinking...

'Tis felt! Good call... And Felty is darn cute. :)

I can't take total credit for the name "Felty." At my last job at the auto supplier, one of the company's products was Fel-Pro brand gaskets, and the Fel-Pro "mascot" was "Felty," this gasket with arms and legs. Sounds weird, but it was sort of cute. I had a cut-out of a Felty in my cube. But all that being said, your Felty is much cuter. Hope I didn't ruin the name for you by comparing your cute creation to a car part! he he.

OH MY GOOD LORD, Steph. You should probably call it "Seizure," as a warning to all who look at it. Seriously, I just recovered. ADORABLE. Enough to get me writing in caps!

Steph said...

THANKS, Steve---you made me laugh while I was drinking and orange juice almost came out my nose!

Andi - Why thanks! I never imagined I might manage that level of cute-atude! I can check one more thing off my "things to do before I die" list. woot!

Anna, no worries. I pretty much think anything cute and anthropomorphic is adorable. (cue the hideous spleen with legs...)
