I thought I had posted this last year, but a quick browse of my archive indicates otherwise. It HAS been sitting in my Flickr photostream since December 5 of 2010.
I know that autumn has only just begun, and that I should not rush into winter (I am Canadian, so trust me when I say that winter is NOT something I look forward to!), but I am about to join the Trim The Tree Holiday Ornament Swap on Flickr. Percy Penguin here was one of the pieces I had considered sending one of my partners last year (I opted for sending out birdie themed felt ornies instead, and wee Percy went to my bestie's little sister)
When I made Percy, I quickly sketched up his pattern and made this printable one-page tute for anybody who would like to have him join their ornament collection. I have made him with felt, but you could also make him with painted muslin for a more rustic look.
As always, he is free for your personal use.
Hugs and Happy Autumn!

Thanks Jaclyn! Felt ornaments (like all felt crafts) are so easy and forgiving. You do not even have to know how to embroider - just a bit of hand sewing! You could probably machine sew Percy, but the little bits would be a bit tricky.
Cuteness!

LOL whoops! Damn, thought it was sis - did she get the blue birdie? I remember that hubs got Ralphie, but that is it LOL
He's adorable! Your site is just full of fun projects.
