Flannel Reindeer?

Bit of a rubbish photo but you get the idea. Do you think I need bigger eyes and nose?

Aww I love it! It's so cute! But I see what you mean about the eyes and nose, they look a bit lost. Although I think it's mainly the size of the eyes which you need to change. The nose is probably alright

Thank you Yours look great! Something not quite right about mine. Couldnt see any bigger eyes on ebay... maybe I need to move them up a touch? or slightly further apart?

Have a play around with them CS See which positions look better than others.

This might seem an odd question but anyway - where do people buy their flannels? Does it matter? Are some better than others? I was thinking of just nipping to Asda or Tesco (waiting for a new Super-Mega-Giant Tesco to open down the road.)

I dont think it matters really. I just got them from t j hughes. £1 for a pack of 2. Just wanted to try them out.

oh dear now I have seen how cute these are I think I want to make them!!!!

And luckily I am in Manchester so can go to the Fred Aldous shop that someone early in the thread recommended yay!

I am just checking out whats needed and I have a question: What size bells have you used for the antlers and where have you bought the bell for around the neck?

I've got 8mm ones. From Fred Aldous There's 25 in a packet. I haven't made up a reindeer yet but they look a good size for the antlers. I've yet to get a bell for the neck though - I got bored of wandering around FA looking lost, trying to find things haha!
