More Fuzzyfoots and the 10th anniversary of Hopalong Jack

.
 

SOLD

Meet Mr Maxwell.. he loves his kibble, you can tell by his chubby tum tum. In fact, he is rather chunky all round, from his toesies to his nosey and his fluffy fat tail.

Mr. Maxwell doesn't chase mice, he would rather sit on the floor and play with his toys.

He is 12" tall and fully jointed with weighted feet.

Stitched with mohair and Needle felted with sheep's wool and Alpaca.

 Esker Fuzzyfoot is

  a  lovable little bun that sits in your palm at 6" tall to the top of his head and 9" to the tips of his ears.

His head is articulated to turn any which way, his arms and legs are jointed. He is a very proper young bun, with excellent manners. and a love for good conversation.
His footsies are weighted and handstitched.
SOLD

 Fashioned of long mohair and Needle felted with sheep's wool and Alpaca, Esker is quite kissable.

Above is Poppins Bunwinkie. This handsome chap would rather be in the garden, poking in the radish bed than posing for pictures.

He has articulated arms and head with jointed and weighted legs.

Stitched with white mohair and Needle felted with Black Alpaca wool and sheep's wool from my Linclon Finn, Beatrix.

His vest has shoe buttons, embroidery and is festooned with his favorite vegetables. It  is removable by unsnapping at the shoulders.

 He sits or stands beautifully!

Three jolly inhabitants of Hopalong Hollow!
Next week, I will introduce you to some squirrels and chippys.

 Now I hope you will join me as I celebrate the 10th anniversary of my first and foremost little rabbit, Hopalong Jack.

  My Book, "Hopalong Jack and the Blue Bunnies" was first published in 2005 and has just been reprinted for the 9th time! We are expecting 6000 books to arrive next week. I am always delightfully surprised when I meet a child of 7 to 9 years old at an art show, and learn that he or she has loved this book since they were "little" (little, being 1 to 2 years old).  It  is exciting for a book creator, to know that one's books have become a keepsake and a childhood memory, but this is not a storybook for children alone, as 1/3 of my customers purchase my books for an adult. Aren't YOU a child at heart too?

2005

Since Hopalong Jack was the impetus for  Hopalong Hollow and thus, all following books and woolen characters, it seems odd that I have not yet reproduced HIM in 3-D as yet. I will do it soon.

To celebrate Jacks 10th anniversary, and in time for Easter, I offer a chance to win  a signed copy of Hopalong Jack. Just leave a message or an email, I will draw a name  next week. It doesn't matter if you already own the book, if you win, it makes a lovely gift for someone else.

Cheers from Hopalong Hollow!
