DIRTY BUM

this weeks WIP was little dirty bum for my new set of plushie patterns

recycled mohair from extinct panda (well my neighbours dog got him really and the mohair was so distressed i just had to reuse it) I DID BOIL IT FIRST !!!

just a head and already a pain

his real name is tiny and later in this blog i'll show you my inspiration for this little tike

rude isnt he ?

finished dirty bum pattern at last !!!

well now the reason she's called dirty bum was this fabulous 1940's mothers day card that my mothering law barbara and her sister christine made for their mum (GRANNY) when they were little tots

inside

winky dirty bum alias tiny was their kitten

poor granny was in hospital on mother's day as she had just lost her baby...i found the card so moving i just had to make dirty bum as a tribute

"DIRTY BUM" IS ONE OF MY NEW SET OF SOFT TOY PATTERNS (actual size pattern pieces included)

THEY ARE $12.50 each POST FREE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD - PAYMENT IS THROUGH PAYPAL ONLY

Oooh Debbie that is so moving and special. I'm so pleased for you that the old card was kept all those years.

best Wishes,
