With the Christmas Vintage and Handmade Fair fast approaching, the studio has been filling up with new additions in preparation.
I have been thinking about making a fox for a while, mainly because they are James' favourite, and with the release of Roald Dahl's film of Fantastic Mr Fox, I thought the time had come.
So this ol' fella is now waiting patiently in the studio window, keeping one beady eye on the calendar counting down the days, and the other on the sewing machine... eager to know who or what is going to join him!!
Have a great weekend everyone xx
