three kids, sled and dog "flattie" project...

What kind of figures have been used with cardboard Christmas houses and villages, where do you get appropriate figures today, how do you make, prepair, repair or otherwise maintain figures?

three kids, sled and dog "flattie" project...

Post by Howard »

greetings to all...

i have been looking for an interesting "flattie" project for quite a while...then my long time forum friend, Barb, sent me a photo of the front of a vintage Christmas card with a similar subject...but from a slightly different view...it was just the jog my memory needed to recall a picture of a vintage zinnfiguren i had saved off the internet...but had temporarily forgotten...naturally, i had to dig right in and start the project...see the progress photo and free pattern below...

note...i must admit i did "borrow heavily" from the original...and since the photo was copyrighted...i don't feel i can post a picture of the vintage piece...

i'll update the project as it progresses...

my very best regards...

Howard...

I especially like this one. It is closer to the era that I like to think my village would live in. Closer to when I was a little girl... Thanks much for all the hard work you do on the flatties and all the patterns. Debbie
