I got a custom order for a beautiful little girl in Colorado. It was for a lion, the only specification given was one blue eye and one green eye. It was also supposed to represent Sundown United which a friend of mine has started recently. (Check it out, it’s awesome.)
I went looking for a burnt orange kind of felt, but having just moved to Austin, I haven’t found the best fabric store yet. So I found this really pretty Royal Blue. I had some fuzzy yarn from a while back to use for the mane. Oh man, let me tell you , that mane was so troublesome. Not only did it shed all over my room, but I was thrown around the house by my cat, who thought it was a plaything. It’s always fun, but stressful to sew something into a 3-D creäture with no pattern.
I hope little Hailey likes her new friend. I’ll be making some more in a little different way.
I’m excited to make more. Look out!
