I've had this little mermaiden on my "to sew" list for quite a while. It's the third project I've made from the Wee Wonderfuls book (previous projects here and here).
There's been some waffling on Halloween costumes, so I hope getting to snuggle with this little stuffie helps cement the idea of being a mermaid in K's head. For a long time she wanted to be a ballerina, then she switched to tiger, then "a lizard! that eats flies!" And now we're on to mermaid. And it better stick, because costume fabric has been purchased!
How perfect is that green scale fabric for a mermaid tail?! And I suppose I could still pull off a lizard costume... if I really have to...
hahaha! i love it. very clever mother, you are. and here's hoping you end up with a mermaid come halloween :D
ReplyDeletewhere did you get the mermaid scale fabric? thanks! moonjava23k@icloud.com
ReplyDeleteI got the scale fabric from my local Joann's. It was a couple years ago, so I don't know if they still carry it. Maybe when they start brining out the Halloween stuff it'll be back!
