Bye-Bye Tula...

 

Meet Tula.  She's a needle felted fairy that I've made to give to our local Hospice charity fund raiser and art auction.  I was so embarrassingly thrilled to be asked to participate as an artist.  Who, me?  I can only assume they were desperate.    An unfinished furniture store donated some dining room chairs as a child's rocker, and...(drum roll please)...a small foot stool.  We (us artists) were supposed to use them as canvases. 

So this was my interpretation of a foot stool!  The only problem is I have become so attached!  I really hate to let her go, even for such a good cause...sigh.  I've never made something that I've hated to part with so much!  Oh well, I hope who ever gets her really likes her.  I almost want to attend the auction to meet who will take her home.  Not that I could afford the ticket price in the first place, but actually I would find watching the bidding horribly frightening.  What if she went for a really low price, or even worse...eek...no one bid at all!!!!  Nope definitely cannot watch.  So she's off ...bye-bye Tula...
