Evie - a new Ellie

Evie is the second ellie I have ever designed and made.  She was made using a lovely rust coloured German mohair and her ear linings and paw pads are made from a fun, spotty cotton.  She has four nut and bolt joints in her limbs and a cotter pin joint in her neck.  Elephants should be a good weight and Evie has been stuffed with polyfill, plastic beads and has a calico bag of stainless steel balls in her tummy.  She has black, English glass eyes.  She has been aged to look like she has had a life.   She is wearing cream, lace ribbons and two rusty jingle bells.  She is 9 inches tall and looking for a new home.
