My Nighty doll
I don't believe I've posted this here before, maybe somewhere, but not here:
Anyway, my mom made me this uber-cute doll a couple of years ago (or was it only a year ago - I forget). I just looked up and saw him sitting on my shelf above the computer and realized I never shared his cuteness with all of you.
He's about 9 in tall or so and made out of wool felt. He's got curly woolly hair and embroidered yellow eyes - no mouth, though. He's really soft and floppy, so I had some trouble getting him to sit up for the pictures, but here he is:
you can see his tail in this one:
Anyway, I think he's the cutest nighty doll I've seen. Not sure what's up with the rave outfit he's got on, but it's cute as well

That is an adorable doll! How kind of your mother to make it for you. She must love you a lot, and be supportive of your Nightcrawler interest.
I love his little sticking out ears. They give him a bit of a lovelorn expression, like he's waiting for a hug. Hi hair has a neat texture, too. It looks fluffy and touchable.
Thanks for sharing the pictures.

He's way cute. I love it!
I love his expression as well. I think you can find the source of his raver outfit on on the last pages of the last issue of the Draco - when he's eating pizza with his brothers. It's very cool that your mother made it for you. I love the construction. What kind of sewing does your mom do besides?
The most Nightcrawler-centric thing my mother has ever done is take this picture:
I figure she's going to use it to embarrass me when I become a vet. It's totally staged of course, but it's more of a re-enactment. After I got home from the Thanksgiving parade my Dad asked me to listen to his lungs because he thought he couldn't breathe. (He's kind of a hypochondriac. I mean, wouldn't you know if you couldn't breathe whether Nightcrawler listened to your lungs or not?)
Anyway... My mom thought it was hilarious and wanted to take a picture, but I posed with the dog because it seemed more appropriate since I'm in vet school.

Hah - and your dog has that "here we go again" look to him. Poor little suckers - I could never help going home and practicing taking pulses or grabbing bladders on my guys at home - eventually they got to recognise that gleam in my eye and would get that "fine, get on with it" look.

Oh, Bluefooted, he's so cute! I love his nose. He reminds me of those pretty, hand-crafted dolls I see in the old wooden, potpourri-scented gift-shops in the historic parts of East Greenwich, Newport, and Wickford. Those dolls are usually really expensive.
That's such an awesome picture, Zam! I really love that costume. Your dog must be really understanding.
Now I want to show off a picture of the Bamf doll my little sister made for me! Unfortunately, my scanner's as dead as Curlyy's. *sigh*

Want more doll pics.
Want a thread dedicated to nothing but hand-cafted fuzzy love.
Anybody else wants that?

Actually, knowing that dog (may he rest in peace - he died a month after that photo was taken) he was probably wondering where the food was. I once figured out that he had one thought going through his head at all times which was "how can I change this situation so that there's more food for me". It could be applied to any situation - even eating.

Because I don't want to completely derail the thread (anymore than I have) you can read all about the saga of my X2 nightcrawler costume here. Because this should really be about Bluefooted's kickass floppy Nightcrawler doll.
