So I decided to make Yvonne's new grandchild with a mini "Arthur".
This is the basic shape done, the eyes sewn on and the ears and legs attached. Now for the fun part - dressing him.....
I don't do any knitting so wool wasn't available. I didn't want to put the "rasta" black wool like Mickeys, so I rummaged around my craft box/bag!!
I realised that I hadn't seen to this box since 1998!! I used to do cross-stitch with wool, and I found some remnants left over. I managed to find some various pale brown wool, but it kept splitting etc. Anyway eventually I managed to sew it on the pony's head. It's got a variety of colours - all I had left!!!
Then I had to choose the blanket for him. I found the remnants from Colin's curtains that I'd taken up a few months ago. So he's now got a nice warm blanket on his back.
It looks as if he's pleased with how he looks, judging by the smile on his face!!!!
