Okay, so I know this isn’t a crafts blog, but it’s MY blog, so bear with me here as I brag for a second about this little guy, who turned out to be a bit of a pain to create. It’s supposed to be a sleepy-eyed triceratops, but kind of looks like a deranged mouse. This is a baby gift for a baby who isn’t born yet, don’t know if it’s a boy or girl, but who needed something a little out of the ordinary.
Here’s the pattern, but I wouldn’t really recommend it. I have no idea why the head, body and tail were separate pieces; I’ve made patterns before that just did everything all in one piece, and I think I’ll stick with that next time, because I don’t love stitching them together. Also, the horns are a little wonky because there’s not much room on the face (okay, also because I’m not very good at this sort of thing, and lost patience and just kind of stuck everything together any which way).
Remember, if you’re looking for genuine crafty, check out my friend Decemberbaby’s blog. Otherwise, stay tuned here for more homeschool-related drivel tomorrow… !
Well, *I* think he looks like a sleepy triceratops. An adorable sleepy triceratops, at that.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't have to be a craft blog to show off your craftiness, you know.
