I had the lovely pleasure of testing out the book “Zombie Felties: How to Raise 16 Gruesome Felt Creatures from the Undead” at the party thrown by Steph Calvert of Hearts and Laserbeams and Delilah Snell of The Road Less Traveled (Delilah photographed me). A bunch of crafty folks like Christina Sanchez of Le Modern Trinket, Yoli Miramontes of Yoli’s Clay and Tracey Taylor of the ARTery Gallery playtested the felt zombies in question. I picked out the Vampire Zombie to try! The little guys were cute and fun to make but I can also imagine them as big plush toys! Delilah also suggested perhaps pins or hairclips to be made from the zombies? Such fun!
You have the opportunity to win the book at Steph’s OC Weekly blog! Hurry to enter!
