Parts of this hippo doll have been floating around my sewing room for quite some time. I wanted it to have an exaggerated head, but not too big. I had go a few times at making it right, but various heads sat on my cutting table until last week when I thought I would make one for Eva. Nothing like have a birthday deadline to get you sewing and fixing some design problems. I think she is the perfect huggable size for a 5 year old. She was immediately called Molly and has been tucked under her arm ever since.
I can't promise that the pattern will be ready soon, but it is on the list!
The two of them are so cute together!
ReplyDeleteso very very cute, a real winner there! what a delightful pair they make.
ReplyDeleteVery cute hippo! Eva looks so cute. Happy Birthday to her a little late!

ReplyDeleteThis might be even cuter than the dress, just maybe :-)
