OK, my day wasn't a TOTAL loss... I finished my first commissioned piece!! YEA!
This is the feller that spawned my new pincushion. The pincushion was the 2nd attempt at a frog, this was my 4th!
A friend wanted a frog for his girlfriend for their anniversary. A don't do frogs. I hate frogs. Frogs hate me. (just kidding!) I told him I only do bears, and he asked me to do a frog. " I only do bears." "I need a frog." "I don't do frogs." "I need a frog... have another beer." "OK... when do you want the frog?"
Don't drink and sell, people!
I gave up on the frog and this is what I ended up with. I wish I could get a better picture for ya'll, 'cuz this is the CUTEST THING I have ever made!!!
He said not to worry if I couldn't do it... that made it a challenge. If he doesn't like it, I guess I'll sell it later.
"HOP" you like it!
He has turned out lovely Ann-I love his little froggie outfit and I am sure your friend will love him.If it were me I would much rather have this little creation than a frog
Laurie :hug:
He is so adorable!!! You did a great job shelley
So, so cute. I think a bear in a frog suit is so much cuter than a frog would have been...no offense intended to any frog lovers...I just love the idea of bears dressed like other animals. The frog suit is just great.
How very lovely and so unusual, I am sure he will be well received.
Warm wishes
