Oh I see, this cute little bug took a flower petal..........  Hum, can you figure out what for?

Yes!  This little bug is a Spring Windsurfing bug!
It takes a lot of skill to surf a gentle spring breeze like that!
Cowabunga! What fun!
This is a Spring Windsurfing Bug that stands just over 1 1/2 inches tall and it's Flower Petal Surfboard.  It is made in the waldorf tradation by using natural materials.  It's made of a wire core covered in cotton Floss. It's bendable and poseable.  It can wrap it's arms and legs around an object and actually hold on.   It has wool felt wings and a hat that has accent blanket stitching using a cotton thread . It has a wool needle felted belly.  It's head is a wood bead that has two copper color wire antenna.  This bugs colors are Coral and Sage Green. It also comes with a tiny flower petal surf board made of wool felt.  The leaf has two loops on top of it made of wool felt that it's feet slip into.   He is so cute! 
On this set I have used a new technique to add shading to the its needle felted belly, wool felt hat, and surf board.
No paint is used and it is a non toxic natural meidum.
