JEMIMA PUDDLE DUCK 

 

Jemima's journey

I shall be sad to see Jemima leave as she is one of my favorites, it was Beatrix Potters inspiration that got me knitting in the first place and Jemima is certainly top of my list.

She has however been very lucky and found a nice new home, so  her shawl has been finished off and she's been told to be on her best behavior when she meets Sandy :)

If you would like your own Jemima or any other toy for that matter just leave me a comment.

Lady Mouse, Beatrix Potter

LADY MOUSE

This delightful character made her appearance in the book The Tailor of Gloucester™ first published in 1903. The Tailor of Gloucester™ was Beatrix Potter's own favourite among all her books. The story is set in "the time of swords and periwigs and full-skirted coats." While toiling in his shop one Christmas season, the Tailor looked up from his work to see a lady mouse dressed in finery peeking around a cup on the sideboard! She shyly curtsied before hopping down and disappearing under the wainscot."



I love the detail on Lady Mouse, she was a joy to knit up.
