Pip!


 It's such a treat to have our computer back up and running...it appears that computers are not immune to the lurgy either!
So after a new hard drive, several lost photos and many lessons learned.. I'm returning with a friend...

Pip is his name, and he came about over the Christmas holidays when I decided to indulge in the "creating of things I never normally turn my hand to ,but have always quite fancied!"
He's a gentle soul despite his inadvertent "pirate-y" appearance. Pip genuinely lost an eye in his making....one day I left him sitting on my desk with 2 eyes ready to be stitched...to return the next day with one missing!



One of these days, I get the feeling a lone eye will 
turn up in some random place and I'll wonder what the heck I've stumbled across...hopefully Pip will have placed himself in an obvious position with his remaining beady eye fixed on me as a reminder!

  3. I love him and his patch it gives a certain sternness to his quizzical stature. A happy accident

  5. i love it when something turns out as you wanted. I love him - especially the missing eye. I love the way you have used lots of different fabrics and lace. Nice to hear from you again. jayne x

  6. Brilliant, such a handsome chap! That's quite funny because I keep losing eyes too...not my own of course...yet! My foxes eyed kept straying the other day..I'm sure they must be stuck to my clothes somewhere peeking at folk when I walk by! I've also been meaning to make an Owl for aaaages...sometimes it takes an age to get round to trying something new but it's so fun. x
