I did this:



It's a terrible photo as it was night time, but it's been raining too much to take a better one. Quite chuffed with it though, especially as I made up how to create it.

Oh if you do muster up a pattern please do let us know. My Daddy is elephant mad & would love it.

Hi cuddles123 do you sell these? I don't want to talk about my craft skills they are virtually non existent. I had an awful experience with Brownie badges over the weekend which I am having to pay for therapy to recover from ... any way back to the point my girls would kill (probably me!) for an elephant

This is my latest one. For the little boy who had the blue one with boxers on.



His mum showed him the picture and he got all excited! Bless!!!!

And I have done the hair of wanda the witch following instructions on here. what do think? (dont think you can see it too well though!!)

I sell mine - I'm on Folksy as Minerva Crafts and if you send me a message if the animal you want isn't there (not many are at the moment!), then I'll try my best to make it for you.

I use black buttons or embroider them depending on whether they are for a young child or adult.

I prefer them to the googly or toy eyes, I would be worried about them pulling through the sock fabric.
