I'm ready for a rumble in the mean city in my Angry Mice Jacket.
This is an example of pushing past a mistake into something entirely unexpected. While trying to make two felt masks for young children as part of an extreme advent calendar (stay tuned), I turned out a mask so small it would only be appropriate on a day-old infant. I set it aside, but liked it so much that I had to use it on something.
Happily, I had an Oska gray linen jacket on hand, a thrift store find just waiting to be fiddled with.

The addition of the felt mouse mask and a little hand embroidery made all the difference.
