The monkeys went out to play today. It was a beautiful day and they were enjoying the sunshine.

Suddenly, they saw a stranger in their tree!

The monkeys moved in to investigate.

“Be careful – keep your distance,” warned Daddy Monkey.

But Baby Monkey wasn’t listening and leapt down to meet the newcomer…

It turns out the newcomer had been too shy to intrude on the family playtime, but once the ice was broken, she was happy to join in the games. The gibbon and the tamarins are now best of friends!

I was going to wait until tomorrow for some daylight but I can’t wait to post this – I’ve just finished crocheting my first Fuzzy Ferret! Sorry the photo is a bit dark, but hopefully you get the idea. Click the pic to see the full-size ferret:

Ferret fans – I’ve made this for you! I tried to make him lifesize – he’s about 14″ long by 4.5″ tall. Hope you approve…

UPDATE: We have better photos! See my new post for more ferrety goodness.

Sorry for the blog silence – I’ve been busy designing! I have 3 projects currently in the works… more on that soon. For now, to help pass the time, here’s a little game for you:

Four of these stones are beach rocks from Lake Ontario. The other seven are my polymer clay faux granite rocks. Can you tell the genuine articles from the Fimo replicas?
