Gardener Fox

This is not an American gardening fox- he is from the UK in maybe the 90’s? I sometimes watch YouTube videos where an older man is in his chilly greenhouse, propagating some interesting plant… this fox is inspired by him :-)

I made him a faux Fair Isle vest.

His jacket has 2 pockets- one for his notebook of gardening notes, the other for his kerchief to clean dirty paws.

He has a garden basket- he has been harvesting some veg and flowers.

He is the last fox for now. On to something new.

Night Fox

I made a shirt for myself from the firefly/lightening bug fabric and now this fox gets to wear it too. It will be better on her because it has gold highlights that came off my shirt when it was washed. I don’t think that will be a problem for her.

She has a super soft cashmere sweater with a silk bow. The sweater closes with a hook and loop under the bow.

Here is her moon purse. You can also see the antique star beads that I sewed onto her sweater.

Flower Girl

This flower girl is a little cranky.

Here she is in the sun-

and in the shade.

Too many pictures Mom!!

She has a dress made of Liberty cotton lawn and a soft purple cashmere sweater.

A bag for her flowers and other important stuff. I used some sweet antique trim that has been in my stash for a long while and it turned out to be exactly the right size!

One more kitty after this!

Goth Kitty

My black kitty is sweet as can be but this one is a different story. She is a goth girl or she at least aspires to be!

I just noticed that her penny slipped out of her basket and onto her sweater! Oh well- I’m not gonna worry about it. I will make sure it gets back in to her basket.

I have been waiting a while to find the right project for the wonderful octopus fabric. Her sweater is a soft blend which includes angora- I can tell because it’s fuzzy and it sheds (a bit).

I blanket stitched around the edges of the sweater and made her a pin to wear. The sweater’s buttons are Victorian era glass. The dress has vintage lace at the hem.
