Eadlin, A lovely memory

 

A little mouse from last year to share, a furry mohair mouse in a delightful vintage Liberty print.
I have been making twilight mice in greys and black but have not had time to photograph them so I am remembering Eadlin in her pea pod dress. The fabric was such a great find, truly vintage and I have never found any more to buy. A black ground with a myriad of peas and pods running across in a lovely pea green. Teamed with Grinch mohair she made a lovely little mouse. With little green leather tail and ears she has a hand embroidered face with a deep green pearl eye. Finished with black organza, black buttons and a black embroidered sampler pillow she truly is one of my darker mice. The black tulle and the green shot cotton sitting well together to make up her petticoats. As with all my mice she has a pair of broderie Anglais drawers with the tail peeping through. She went off to her new home last year and she was a joy to make!
