Mama Rose and Baby Rose

A reader of mine got confused because she found Rose the Pegacorn on another softie-maker's site, too. She wanted to know whether the parents ordered two different versions of the same softie. Well, the answer is yes.

Yes, for them it was important to get two different interpretations of the same drawing - a Mama Rose and a Baby Rose. So they asked both Abby and me to make a Pegacorn. The two Roses arrived on different days - both 'birthdays' are marked in the family's calendar :-)  Baby Rose has wire in her legs so she can pose, and Mama Rose is a bit cuddlier than her baby. And both of them are loved very much!

Hey, two Roses, feel yourselves lucky to belong to that family! :-)

Twin robots


Were you able to draw a robot like this when you were 3.5 years old? Malachy was!

I especially liked this order because Malachy's father had brilliant ideas - it was him who asked me to make the arms a solid colour and all the other parts white with colour outline. And it was his idea to use fabrics of different textures, too.

I sewed two robots because Malachy has a half-sister - they rarely see each other, so this robot is something she can treasure.

'M' for Merle's mascot

Merle (she is from Germany and she is eight) designed an 'M' mascot in yellow and blue.



And I made a little extra - it is a badge.


Merle, I hope you like your 'M'!

Pretty Lady and Super Mom

Hannah drew Pretty Lady when she was 4 and a half - and I think she is the prettiest Pretty Lady I have ever seen. Look at those fantastic eyelashes!



And she drew Super Mom when she was 8. Lucky girl who has a Mom like this!



Oh yes, Super Mom asked me to change the colour of her skin from yellow to ivorysmiley



 


They are travelling together:

Monster with a handle

Six year old Jadon kept asking his mom to send one of his drawings to the pokemon creators so that they could make an all-new pokemon.
And his mom did send me the picture of this cheerful, practical mnoster - now I can call myself a pokemon creator... Thanks, Jadon!


Update!!! The monster arrived in time to become a birthday present.
Am I the only one who thinks their smile is a bit alike...?
