Hado-rybo-slon / Elephant- and Snake-like Fish


Went to the playing course today with the little guy, and when we came home, who knows why, I got on this creative note. I have seen similar fish somewhere in a cafe in their kids' corner and they looked so easy to imitate, apart from that that they were really cool, so I felt like sewing few of them myself. Not that I would think that fish is a great toy, to make it for the kid was just an excuse for me to play at seamstress today, but fish are hard to mess up, because their shapes, colors and looks could be many.


Well, as you see, the result is far from any expectation. My intention was to make a sea eel and it turned out to be something that I described in the title of this entry. So far, the little guy doesn't care about it, and that came up to my expectation completely.

I like the personality of your fish. I think a little group of them in different colors would make a great mobile.

You know what, just before turning on the computer I made a one-piece mobile out of it. I don't think I am going to make group of them, I am too lazy or too distracted by other plans.

I really like it - it looks like a happy fish. I think I need one of those because I have had the worst week this week. I think the whole world is going crazy.
