If I do catch up(insert manic giggles here) its because I’ve a sudden fit of energy which would be a first for this year.
anywho....
here he is ,a very boyish fairy
the first thing I thought when I saw him was that old nursery rhyme
"Snips and snails and puppy dogs tails that's what little boys are made of"
so lots of bugs and critters for him
I sewed them on felt first , learning (finally) from my mistake last month with the Hedgie.
I also wanted it to have a more back-of-the-yard ravine feel to it
You know those wonderful places in the far rural suburbs between the houses where there is the feel of forest if not the actuality of it.
a place for finding bugs and critters or the occasional deer or raccoon
a child's thoughtful spot for dreaming and pretend
mucking about in the mud catching frogs and splashing in puddles
watching the critters go about their business for the day
humming a hum
