Cushion is made from 100% wool felt...with so many careful embroidery stitches! The top heart is stuffed with sheep's wool, the bottom with crushed walnut shells...The ellie is made from hand-dyed mohair, patchy and worn...sweet blue flowered ric-rac and vintage charms complete this vintage-styled whimsical piece! *Hugs* will keep careful watch o'er your pins and needles...

*Sweet William*
12"
William is waiting for his sweetheart! Made in magpie-fashion...hand-dyed mohair that's been carefully aged, stuffed with excelsior and sand...loosely 5-way jointed~~and of course, antique, shoe-button eyes! William's body is sewn from vintage-reproduction quilter's cotton, and his ears are lined with the same...pads and eye accents are 100% wool. I have pinned a grand bow to him with vintage charms, and 2 vintage beads trim out his suit. He comes with a vintage paper shoe pinkeep that I have restored and embellished with ephemers...a tiny, giggling, angel! William is quite "distressed"~~"mended" here and there and he feels soooo very old! He would be right at home on a shelf of antique toys...
SOLD~~thanks!
**************************************************************
*Red and Yellow Pandy*
12"
Made in the same fashion as "William" (above), this fellow is absolutely grand! He sports a beautiful blue velvet bow pinned with vintage beads~~and he has William's other shoe! But his has the sweetest little boy on it, cut out in a heart shape...in fact, this dandy pandy and the boy on the shoe seem to have the same little smile. :)
SOLD! (thank you...)

*Strawberry Sue*
12"
I love this gal's colors~! And I enjoy the reds and pinks of Valentine's so much, for they lead us into the warmer days of spring, slowly but surely...Made in Magpie-fashion, this gal is stuffed with a bit of wool as well...I have sewn her a strawberry emery...100% wool felt, stuffed with crushed walnut shells. It is pinned to the grand green bow that is pinned to her...such a sweet-pea she is!
on ebay!!

And that, my friends, is that! Thank you kindly for peeking into the nest...
Blessings,
Meg
PS~~I spell-checked, and find nothing but the usual argument of "pinkeeper" and "ric-rac"...seems too good to be true that I typed so well!! So. If you should find a hideous mistake, just know that I tried, my sweet friends...
