Well, this little mouse sure was fun. I adapted the design to create this cute, fuzzy mouse with an embroidered coat. He's also a mere 2" tall (not counting the spool), and has a needle and thread in one paw. In the other, he's holding his mousy tail. I attached a printed twill tape with spools and buttons on it. I think it may need a button or two attached, too. I'll do that later. There's even a tiny spool with the same thread on it, just in case Taylor runs out!
Can you tell I'm having fun with these? I may need to find one of those typesetter's trays just to display the ones I make! I wonder what I should do next? Any ideas? Let me know in the comments if you think of something fun.
Busy day today, so I'll keep this short. It's a bit warmer outside, so there's that. At least the below zero stuff has moved along. I'll be back tomorrow with pictures of the Birthday Girl. See you then!
Oh, your little critters are adorable! It can be extremely rewarding to take a break from things that "need" to be done and be creative just for the fun of it. However, sometimes that is so much fun it can become addictive 😆😉
ReplyDeleteHi Lois:
DeleteThanks so much! I agree that it was fun to just stop and play for a bit. And, yes. This play is great fun. I'm already contemplating the next one!

Sherry of createology: Oh be still my beating heart! Your wee mouse on the spool is precious. Yes a Squirrel with a very bushy tail and an acorn. And of course you will need a Panda. And then…
ReplyDeleteHi Sherry:
DeleteThanks for the compliment, AND the suggestions. "Panda. and then..."
I'm glad you love the mouse. It's my favorite (so far). Definitely a squirrel will be done.
