Meet Lucy Lion

I have to share this! I'm giggling as I look at what I created today. The girls' school mascot is a lion, and I got the  bright idea to crochet a lion for their teachers as a holiday gift (in addition to the ornaments I made). Anyway, I used a pattern by Vanna White from a little booklet I picked up at Hobby Lobby (you can find it at Joann's and Michaels, too I think).

The first one is done and Amy named her Lucy. Jessica named hers (yet to be created...starting tonight) Louie.



Look at that little piggie like tail. Oh my goodness, this turned out way cuter than I thought it would. LOL I hope the teachers like them. *Ü*  Amy wants one now....

Wow! These are so cute! The teachers are going to love them! Besides, they look like they have "baby butts." (except for the tail, of course.)

That is darling - what a fun idea to do with the school mascot. Ours is an eagle, I don't think it would turn out as cute ;-)
