Meet The New Kids Under The Tree

I'd like you to meet Otis and Ruby. Otis is very self conscious about his feet, he retains fluid you know, and has trouble walking some days, plus he has a toe condition, poor chap.

He's also aware that his ears don't always do want he wants them to, especially when it's an extremely windy day.
He knows it's time for a lifestyle change as his tummy tends to rub on his feet.

In his favorite spot.

Ruby has her issues as well. She's very embarrassed about her extremely thin legs and lack of muscle condition.
She has a habit of accidentally hitting others, as her arms have become quite stiff.
She would rather that you didn't stare at her ears, like Otis and his ears, hers just won't do what she wants them to, no matter how hard she tries.

A quiet nap under the tree.

These two spend a lot of time under this tree.

They have two new friends Claude and Maude.

Claude's a little shy though, and doesn't want everyone to meet him until Maude has her new outfit finished. Then he's promised Otis and Ruby that he'll come out and play under the tree with them and Maude.

Happy Stitching.
