A Prickly Handful.
Posted on | October 8, 2019 | 8 Comments
As usual, I have found a distraction in between finishing quilts.
Here it is in a small bowl.
I went to a class at Bear Essence in Tooradin with a group of friends to take a class for this little baby hedgehog.
I think the prickly fur is quite delightful. The hedgehog is made to roll up into a ball and has a hook and eye to hold it in that position.
It even has a belly button but I am not sure that shows up in the photos.
The pattern is by D’Lyell Bears and is called Snuffles.
It is a long time since I have made anything fur related (bears) so this was a good way to get back into it. However, I do not plan to take up bear making no matter how gorgeous they are. This one was all stitched by hand and I really do prefer to use my machine. Having said that, I still thorough enjoyed the experience.
Spring has arrived in our town. Lots of blossom on the trees and lots of wind blowing it off the trees and down the street. Pretty normal for us. And the bees are very happy and busy.
Hope your day isn’t too prickly.
Cheers, Karen

Oh my goodness, I am so far behind in my blog reading! This little guy is just too cute. I can’t believe his all hand stitched. I applaud you for that one, I really can’t imagine it myself!
Oh my heavens! I absolutely must find that pattern. My granddaughters wanted hedgehogs for pets last year and it took all the adults (and some serious threats) to convince them otherwise. This, however, they could maintain. I love it! Your little guy is just too adorable.
Your hedgehog is very cute, he made me smile :)
How big did he/she finish at?
Oh, my, how absolutely adorable!
