Okay, here's my attempt................
Heather...I think your mousie is every bit as cute as everyone else's. In fact he looks very cuddleable if that's a word! Isn't it amazing how different they all are and from such a simple pattern.
Oh, your mouse is very cute, Heather! Thank you for posting him. Or her. You all are making such great mice!

My avatar picture and this thread remind me of when we lived in the Seattle area in an apartment (the one my avatar picture was taken in). Our cat, Strider (pictured), kept sniffing and pawing at a cupboard under the sink, insisting that there was something under there. To make a long story short, it was a mouse, and it got into the living room somehow. Strider cornered it under a piece of furniture, and Garth (hubby) somehow got it out of there and directed it toward the front door. Strider gave chase and followed it all the way out the front door, through the hallway, and the little critter squeezed itself under the door of the apartment opposite ours! EEK! Fortunately, the apartment was empty, so we just told the landlords about it so they could take care of it. Good ol' mouser Strider!
Debora
Heather he is gorgeous!!! I I hope mine turns out as well as yours.
Debora, loved the mouser story!! :clap:
Also love all the mice I've seen so far!!!!!!!!
This is a sample mouse, which I'm showing against my better judgement :crackup:
I only made this one to see how the pattern fitted. I put her in a bikini as you can see. BECAUSE she was in the nudie :crackup: What ever you do, dont take her seriously, please.... :redface:
Wendy, your sample mouse makes me giggle. Thanks for sharing her!! I'm excited to see what your non-sample mouse looks like.
Debora
Thanks girls, for saying my mouse is cute!
Wendy, you're mouse is soo funny! Shows how creative you are. That's the fun thing about this project, we dont have to take it seriously.
Wish I had a simple pattern to share, so we could do another challenge.....
Heather - very cute and cuddleable mouse indeed.
Wendy - exactly what I would have expected from you. Love the bikini mouse. :crackup:
Heather I have a bear companion pattern that I'm more than willing to share.
I dont know how to set it up online though. And I suppose It would need instructions and stuff :doh:
Just let me know if you are interested.
Wendy
Finally . . . I had time to do the mousie challenge. Thanks much, Teresa, for allowing us to use your cute pattern. Jinx is made from two different pieces of upholstery fabric with the tail/ears made from batiked wool.
Jinx is adorable, Sue Ann. Now you've made me wish I had time to make a mouse for this challenge!
Debora
Sue Ann, Jinx is lovely! Well done!
Finally, Sue Ann, your mouse reminded me to finally take pictures. Now that I am done, I see that Aleta's is also a clown! A VERY adorable one at that! I didn't copy Aleta, HONEST!
Anyway.. here is my mouse
Sonya
Sue ann and Sonya your mice are wonderful. Looks like I better pull my finger out and finish mine. :redface:
Wendy
Oh, Sonya! What an adorable mousie clown! He can come live with me!!
Debora
OK here's my mouse. They are the clearest pics I could get.
Oh my, Wendy!! That has got to be the cutest fuzzy mouse I've seen! lol!! He looks just like something I'd see pop it's head out from behind my fridge, laden with cracker crumbs! Tooo cute!
Kimberly W.
P.S. I wouldn't want you ladies thinking I have mice peeking out from behind my fridge... As far as I know, I am currently cracker-mouse free! lol
What a cutie! I love the fuzzy one!
These mice are all so different yet all adorable. I think you've all inspired me to give it a try soon.
Kimberly!!! what I am wondering is..... What are you doing hiding behind the fridge eating crackers in the first place :crackup:
I used a few stiches to sculpt the wee mouse to hold the pose he has. I love the way he turned out, so am now inspired to make my own mouse pattern.
Wendy
Hello... Just wondering if this challenge is still going on....i would love to try it. All these little mousers are wonderful.....especially the little fuzzy......:)
Doreen
Hello Ranae.... Yes, I have already made mice..but i have not made one from this pattern. I love this one. I can think of several fabrics i would like to try with it. I am hoping to get started today with it.
