This is the first of my heirloom pocket puddles. PUDDLES being the name that baby platypus are called.
So when you hear me talking about making a puddle, you can rest asured that I am not outside playing in the mud. No matter how wonderful that was when I was a child :redface:
LOOPY LU. the name speaks for itself. I made this wee puddle to celebtae my eldest nephews wedding.
I drew up sketches of the bride and groom with MH-b logo for the foot pads and tail lining.
I used pieces from two old mohair coats my Mother gave me. I love this fabric.
My plan is to make a matching baby Roo. They want to start a family next year.

I have added ribbons to my wee Cracker of a puddle. and there has been a name change bear_grin
She now goes by the name of .........'.Cracker'
