This is Pickles. He is Santa’s absent minded helper. He has lost the all important list that Santa gave him, so he has got himself in a bit of a twist. Unlike his twin who is very meticulous and goes over lists with a fine tooth combe, Pickles is always losing things .
He has searched for it high and low
And in his favourite storing place behind his ears but he cannot find THE LIST.
I suspect he has it tucked behind in his PJs and forgotten about that storing place😄
I took part in a fabric swap where we swap fabrics and make a doll out of the fabrics that your partner sent. This is what I came up with.😄
Wow, these are so cute!! Poor Pickles losing everything. His twin does look studious and Pickles looks so confused.
ReplyDeleteI did want to get that absent minded look on his face but not sure if I succeeded
Deleteand the clothes on PIckle and his twin - wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteThank you
Deletehe is great! :D love the fabric, you used it really well here :) 5 hidden lists?
ReplyDeleteThank you Jen actually 6 hidden lists one behind each ear😄
DeleteHi Shashi, I love Pickles and the story you told about him. I often look just like that when I’m trying to find something!
ReplyDeleteDoes his twin have a name?
Thanks for visiting my blog and for persevering with comments even though Blogger is being difficult.
You asked me about the postcard sent to ‘Helen’ and I have answered on my blog but to save you going back I will include it here;
The postcard was sent from Grindelwald, Switzerland in May 1933. When I first looked at it, I assumed Helen’s parents were on a skiing holiday, but I’m not sure how much snow there would be in May. I imagine Helen was being looked after by grandparents or by a professional nanny. The family lived in Eccleston Place, London SW1 so I would imagine they were fairly wealthy. Like you, I would love to know more.
Dear Barbara, Thank you so much for your compliments. The name of the twin is Poncho for obvious reasons, because he has a paunch😄. Pickles also has a paunch 😂😂
DeleteDear Shashi, Pickles and Poncho - Perfect! :) Thank you so, so much for the very surprise parcel which arrived today. I've sent you an email which I hope you get OK, but just in case I wanted to say thank you here to. She is the best present I ever received. Thank you. x
