I liked the embroidery on the snowy owl so I gave the brown owl an XXX tummy too.
Some flowers and lots of green leaves are starting to burst forth in the garden. I’m so excited!
I am stocking up on owls- I want to have a good assortment for the Smithsonian Show which is in less than 1 month. Yikes!
First, Snowy Owls.
I imagine him as a dog ready to go out for a walk, just like the last hound, but this fellow is going on a more urban, casual walk. He is a city dog.
He has a wide wale corduroy vest and a cashmere scarf. He has a small notebook in his pocket.
I might be having too much fun with these sweet pups!
Cashmere sweater with antique 3-hole glass buttons.
Tummy pic-
fyi- I am not putting these into my etsy shop. There is lots of current listings there and I am going to focus on making work for the Smithsonian Craft Show. If you are interested in something, email (mimik@pobox.com) and I can send you details.
I am imagining that this hound dog is a detective in a cozy British mystery- just the kind I like to read.
I struggled to get the hat just right- I was aiming for a bowler but this hat is less formal I’d say.
He has his pipe, his wool jacket, and a velveteen waistcoat/vest. A very kind person recently sent me a great collection of perfect size buttons and I am having great fun using some of them.
And his hat-
