Meet Zeb

Zeb is the zebra I made from an old pair of socks on Saturday!
 He wanted to be sure you saw his good side.
 And his svelte waistline and legs.
 This took the better part of an afternoon, reading instructions, sewing by hand, stuffing...patching worn spot on sock; sewing on buttons and making his mane...
 You might call this a bad hair day, but Zeb is perfectly happy with his red tuffs.
His arms have a good wing spread too.
I used part of the second sock to go over the first on his body giving him a collar and long shirt look. 
 Zeb will be going to Allie Bel on my next visit there.
