HootHoot New Owl Plushies





I'm working on a line of owl plush. My maiden name has a little something to do with the owl, so our family has always been fond of them. My Dad even named his street "Owls Nest Ln".

I haven't gotten the pattern just right but boy do I have the perfect fabrics! I spent 2 hrs at Hancock's on Monday during a big sale they were having. It was so much fun!


Happy "LOST, season finale" Thursday!

How cute are these onesies? This was a special order I completed today for a friend. They are photo transfers of my "SkullShie's". I have two more blank ones that I'll be putting images on over the weekend. They will be in the etsy shop.



More Guinea Pigs/Hamsters


All the gang, so far...




The twins...Frances & Phillip.

Hamsters or Guinea Pigs?



Rodeo Joe

Flora Fae


Harold



These are the little guys that Bit of Whimsy designed and has allowed me to make a few for resale. She calls them guinea pigs, and the pics I've seen, hers do look like guinea pigs. I think mine turned out to look more like hamsters. Maybe it's just me, my kids love the show Hamtaro, and I see Hamtaro in my little guys.

I will be posting more over the next two days. Just here though, not on etsy. If you would like to purchase one, you can email me at windy@thepetticoatpirate.com. I will then send you an invoice through paypal. They are $14 ea plus $2 for shipping.





Thanks for checking in with me today, Happy Tuesday!

A Colaboration

I will be colaborating with Bit Of Whimsy, pattern and plush maker. I have purchased one of her patterns and have been given the rights to make a limited amount for sale. I am super excited about this. I will be revealing the cute-ness in a few days, so stay posted my friends.

If you would like to be added to my email list for notifications of sales and new listings please leave your email in a comment. Your comment will not be posted here for the World to see, so no worries of a crazy spammer getting ahold of it, I promise.

Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend, and Mother's Day.
