Meet my Duck.....

I spent yesterday finishing off my latest friend and thought you might like to meet him.....and trust me when I say he has already caused a few smiles.






He is a performer's life size duck with a movable head for use by an entertainer.  I started to make him many years ago when I used to work with a magician [ in my past life :-) ] but for one reason or other he never got finished and when I sorted out my boxes of fabric earlier in the week I found him.  He is made using really gorgeous plush off white fur fabric and his beak, feet and legs are made in leather so look very real.  He was a work of art to design and make so really should be put to good use so I have now finished him and put him on ebay to sell.  If you're interested you can find more details here....

Well yes of course she should have a name - I think we should do a "guess the name of the duck" comp. x Jo

I would not name the Duck if you are getting rid of him/her or else you will get emotionally attached!
