Baby Giraffe

I have been working on some "secret" sewing which cant be revealed for a while yet, but I have been sewing I can assure you all. Yesterday I decided to take a break from what I had been doing and run up one of these Giraffes which are easy and very cute. I reduced this pattern down to just under 50% so the wee horns are about as thick as two toothpicks put together LOL, I found a way to get them turned and attached after much @@@**** etc LOL (must admit the eyes need adjusting, I think in hindsight doing it this small I would have not used felt for the eyes and would have drawn them on, anyways it was a fun project to do and very cute.) size of baby giraffe would be approx 8.5 - 9 inches tall.
