You guys!
Look at this amazing little beastie I bought off TradeMe
(New Zealand online auction site).
His name is Bill the Intestinal Bear.
(My nephew insisted.)

Unfortunately this blankety little guy has already attracted the unwelcome attention of Felix, obsessive Toy Inspektor (First Class) and scourge of anything stuffed, tufted, furry or pliant. It suffices to say that he will be living strictly above navel-level from now on. Leigh in Greymouth (NZ) is the mind behind the beast and constructed him from recycled blanket and various vintage fabrics and findings. "I like to make things with their guts coming out, but in a tasteful way." says Leigh. "My workshop is usually for making beasties that mount on the wall like trophy heads, but I do make batches of different things such as the soft toys with guts, trifod style hair and hat pieces, mounted insects made out of fabric and fly tying gear."
See the pic above for the dragon-type mounts she's working on at the moment. Leigh's getting a website together and I'll post a link to her great stuff once it's up and running.
