Meet 'Pepe' My first ever Christmas swap! He is an 11 inch , 9 way jointed Cheerful Christmas Chimp with a fully needlefelted face and suede paws. I made him for the lovely Lyn Parker of Parker Bears whose creations are fabulous!
I had SO much fun making him and his santa sack which I made from an old velvet curtain and trimmed it with mink for a touch of class, then felted some pressies to pop inside.
I LOVE CHRISTMAS and have really loved making a swap Chimp...IT IS SOOO EXCITING!!
Hugs Linda :)
