First Fox, Then Wolf, Then Snow Leopard - Now Dragon!
Time to make more animal scarves for the fall! I've been stocking up on leopard print fleece and white fleece (the belly area on the scarves) and saw the other week at JoAnn Fabrics in the anti-pill fleece section a very nice birch tree print. There's no leaves on the trees, or side branches, it's all vertical lines with dots and smudges making up the tree markings. I immediately thought of Snow Dragons!
Today I cut and sewed 8 of them, with various colored eyes (mint green and gold the best choices), and gave them gold horns. The tail ends on three were done in white fleece, on the other 5 they're in chocolate brown. Each face got a chocolate brown design up the nose and across the forehead. They can, of course, be done in mottled greens as well, or blues, but the white birch tree print caught my eye and I had to use it.
I may hold out a few to be sent to Pennsic War next August, but primarily I wanted to have these pretty much go to Midwest FurFest in December down in Chicago.
They're VERY warm, not exactly something to sell at high summer in August at the SCA event.
