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. bear_original

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!  bear_whistle Fortunately, the apartment was empty, so we just told the landlords about it so they could take care of it. Good ol' mouser Strider!  bear_grin

mousechallenge1.jpgmousechallenge3.jpgmousechallenge2.jpgThis 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:

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.

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

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  bear_tongue

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.  bear_grin  bear_grin
