As I haven't make too much plushie for two months I can only write about my last realizations: this young lynx girlie. Now I know I should chose differnet background for the photo, but it's done, and toy\d reached her destiny in Canada some time ago.
It was made for The Needle swap - and was meant to reflect somehow the country of origin. In Poland we have few species of very special animals but lynx are one of the most special - they are on the best way to be extinct. And recently there is a WWF campaign to save some wild terrains especially for lynx. My beauty has panda - an icon of wildlife campaigns as a memo. Made of grey polar fleece, has a little beard (she's a girl and usually males have beards but I just wanted her to resemble lynx, not a kitty), ear brushes. Dressed in reversible pinafore.
Her name is after Poland, that's obvious, but also after Pola Negri - famous actress and Rudolf Valentino fiance :) (who - but complete coincidence ;) had Polish origin)
She went to weirdbuglady - and I'm glad she's in such a good company.

looooove!
great job
Totally agree, this one is very special. I love her Polish-ness (my dad is Polish, I really wish I knew more words/phrases than "go to bed" (learned from my dad for sure) and "kiss my bottom" (not learned from my dad, honest)!
Cute stuffed animal! I think the background looks great!
Eeep! She is so cute. And the picture is very well done.
So, I'm a secret follower of your blog (for sometime now). And, I just wanted to invite you out to my blog for my first Quilt Giveaway. I'm doing it to help my friends baby who needs a heart transplant. Hopefully it helps. :)
