Animal Peeks

Here are some peeks at a couple of animals I've been working on recently:
I decided to change the shape of the elephant's body recently, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.  This guy stands around 12 inches tall now (whoa!).  It sorta seems like my animals are getting bigger and bigger.

This little bluebird was a special custom request.  He has little bandaged wings which makes him both adorable and a little sad.

Seeing these pictures reminds me that I have more sewing to do!  I'm excited because I've been commissioned to make my first mobile and  I think it's going to be really sweet.  I'll definitely show pictures once it's finished!  Happy Tuesday!  xoxo Katie

    I love how the sewing looks like eyelashes for the elephant! And the little flower details are cute too. Your stuff would look perfect on a mobile, I think!

    I love your creatures and their droopy little eyelids! They have a slightly sleepy look to them that is so cute. My eyes kinda look like that, too. My mother calls them bedroom eyes, but I think I just look sleepy!
