I finished my second Wilma!
Though I think this one is a William...
He is made in a much more grown up colour way and all ready to go and meet his new owner on Christmas Eve.
Did I mention that Wilma gave a walking tour of Perth?
He is a lot more sturdy, though despite having thicker fabric and heaps more stuffing, he still has some weak points that developed after a few days. He stands up well on her own though. His ears are a bit different as I was doing the cutting outside and the wind blew the piece away. Maybe thats why cutting is generally done indoors ;) So I just guessed...
The fabric was a pain to work with- thick threads and loosely woven. I used fray stop on the edges of key pieces, which made things easier. I do love the fabric though, and in my favourite colour combination!
I used the selvedge to make a little stubby tail:
Fabric was $1 from the Salvos,
Pattern... charity donation.
Win!
