Peggy the Patchwork Python
A draght excluder I made for a friend, I hope she doesn't mind me posting a pic. I nearly always give my stuff away these days & I wanted to share.

I love it! Agree with Susie - a very lucky friend!

Re: Peggy the Patchwork Python
@123Sologne Some toy stuffing left over from my professional toy making days. The bags used to be kept under my youngest's cot...she's 19!
Infact the whole thing only cost me 16.5p...the cost of the eyes!
The ribbon tongue, (which is looped for hanging on the door knob/handle) was from an Easter egg...in 1989!
Hoarder? Moi?

Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Re: Peggy the Patchwork Python
That is really cute MW, I'm the same as you, I always end up giving my stuff away, but it feels good.
