Originally I wanted to use vanilla beans for my third little critter. I knew they were expensive, but I didn’t realize how expensive. If it was for food, I may have just bought them, but for a knit toy-nope. On to the next idea.

So clementine peels and ginger root it is. I’m working with what I’ve got. I have never dried anything. Not intentionally, anyway. This combo should go well with the cinnamon fox and the clove badger I made.
Next up is an owl, which has decided to remind me why I don’t like making stuffed creatures. All the tiny pieces to be made and then sewn together. Ugh!

Ok. Back to making these itty bitty pieces. The orange and ginger is almost ready.
