I have a commision for a sheep with bagpipes, and a girly sheep at that!!
Oh my!
Anyone have any advice on how to do trotters?
Trotters? what are trotters?
Trotters are sheep (cow or pig) feet.
I have an idea so I think I will be doing at least one prototype in plush to experiment
The good thing with my prototypes there are at least a dozen kids wo fight over them to have them
Bron... were you thinking of the hoofs, errrr...trotters.... to be fabric or something like scupley clay?
Let me know if you want help either way. I've done moose with hoofs of fabric and can help with clay hoofs too!
(Sorry, TROTTERS!)
How big are you planning? Where are you getting the bag pipes. You have a source for bear sized bagpipes please let me know!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been wanting to make Dad a bear with pipes but have only found real mini ones or child sized ones.
Oh Daphne, that would be fabulous. I was thinking of material hoofs .
I have been looking at eBay for bagpipes, I don't know where to get them otherwise.
Ah the joys of trying to find stuff for a bear!
Hi Bronwen
Have you tried a Scottish/Celtic shop for novelty bagpipes - I've seen them in the celtic shops here - I could only find one shop in South Australia - and the ones on their site look pretty small but you could ask them if they have more.
