Herbert

When I made my own monster bag I'd blended enough yellow wool to make two, so here's Herbert. I'd planned on giving her frizzy hair, adorned with ribbons. However, once her face was constructed I discovered that she was in fact a he, and Herbert (as he's now been named) did not want to wear ribbons or have frizzy hair! He's gone into the shop this afternoon, along with a batch of nest rings. I'm loving the bird's nests and moments ago had a flash of inspiration for some nest coasters.....watch this space!
