Oliver, Cleo and Sparks


Oliver, Cleo and Sparks are all ready for their new home.  I've been working on them for quite some time and they're  finally ready to meet their new mommy!  Each has been a delight to make as I got to try out some new mohair that I recently purchased. 
Oliver is an Anime Panda made from luscious lemon and lime long pile mohair.  He wears a cream ruffle collar studded with tiny turquoise glass beads.  His pet fish is made from felt and I've embroidered a little design on his sides.  He has tiny glass bead eyes.
















For Cleo the Anime Kitten, I used a super soft cream and pink mohair.  She wears a pink and white ruffle collar with a pretty beaded flower.  Her bird pet is embroidered, made from felt and plumped with polyfil.
















Sparks the Anime Puppy wears a silver collar with tiny bells.  He is made from a pretty blue sparse mohair and a pale brown short pile mohair.  I made some cookies for him from felt and embroidery thread.

















A shot of my work in progress.  Sparks is waiting for his limbs to be sewn together in the background.

    Those are just the most adorable ever! So fuzzy! Seems a shame you having to part with them - do you ever get that?

    Thanks Evelyn!!

    Thank you too Beka! It makes me happy to part with them, especially when I know they're going to good homes, but yes, sometimes I do get a little attached to certain ones:)
