My Creative Space.

I have almost finished my Penguin - still need to bind the feet with fabric and get him stable! I rushed to get this done last night and it wasn't until I was taking pictures of him that I realised that I had put the beak in the wrong position...................


and the wings on the wrong way round!
However I don't really mind as I did what I thought looked best rather than referring to the book. He has a character all of his own.........
and that is what it is all about really isn't it? Although this is a pattern from a book I have made him my own. I think I will have to keep him and make another for my friends' wee girl - perhaps one in lilac tweed!
For more fun projects and WIP's take a look over here.
