I am pleased to introduce the first pig I ever made. She is 2 3/4 inches high standing, but can't stand unaided. Anime style again. Her name is Rosalinde. You can't see it, but she has a piggie tail. bear_original

Sabine,

She is fantastic! I just love her! I've been working on a thread bear today. My eyes were getting tired so I thought I would read the posts on TT.

hugs, Sheila bear_wub

Awww, thank you everybody. It feels so good to get some compliments from friends.

Dilu - this was pearl cotton size 12, which is quite thin. Its what I had, but I don't like to work smaller than this, so I ended up making very many stitches bear_grin She wasn't hard otherwise, just a lot of work. Its a struggle each time though to make them anime. My hands and eyes always want to make more 'appropriate' proportions.

Sheila - shhhh, don't use that term bear_whistle I love your avatar bear and I had a quick look at your website. Adorable bears, both the sewn and crochet ones. So you did that seahorse carousel piece that I have seen on the auction parade site.
