Giorgio is another of my old loved clown series -I just love making them and seeing them come to life -ageing them with darns and my own special ageing technique.
Giorgio is made from German mohair - his two coloured body has been hand dyed in an old looking orange and green.I have given him antique boot button eyes and sparingly embroidered his nose for a well kissed look.
He wears an aged cotton hat and matching ruffle and rusty bells.
Cotter pin jointed and he has a wobbly head joint -encased sand in his tummy.
I enjoyed making him very much-hope you like him?

Aww, what a lovely face, such a gentle expression
Oh such a cutie! I clicked his BearPile link and can see somebody's already adopted him- hope he will be very happy in his new home
