I 'rescued' two Golden Orfe that were left behind when the house was empty next door, by the afternoon I had one very plump, satisfied Cat :roll:

Hey. A cat's gotta do what a cat's gotta do.

Re moving the frogs: what about survival of the fittest? If they can't find the new pond now, just think about dealing with their offspring next year... :shock:

They were spawning all over the gravel :gurn: and making a terrific racket underneath our bedroom window, and banging themselves against the patio doors, it was a froggy hell, at least they shut up when Dave put them in the new pond :lol:

:lol: :lol: There were so many outside again last night, trying to keep them in the pond is impossible, I took the torch out and shone it round the gravel, they all shut up and just watched me, quite menacing :shock: :twisted: :ribbit: :twisted: even the Cat stayed in a lot :shock:

Ok, the dolphin has been duly frogged :ribbit: and I have managed to stitch a little of it again tonight. So we're on the way again.
Will post an update picture tomorrow as camera is downstairs at moment.

I don't think this has been one of my fave projects. Not because of the frog, but so far, I just think it looks a bit 'block like' rather than picture. Anyhow, see if it improves as we go along.

Why is it that those "easy" projects seem to want to give us the most trouble????? :x

Thank you both! :D I am not overly keen on this dolphin it has to be admitted, I would like something a bit finer rather than so blocky but I shall def complete it and beat that dreaded Mr :ribbit:

Love the dolphin threadbear !!
- it's inspiring me to try a couple of small projects I have with free designs of dolphins and orca.

I can email the pdf's of the designs if anyone wants them?






(.....also please excuse the ignorance, but what's with all the :ribbit: :ribbit: :ribbit: in this thread?? am I missing something?? )

Why do we need pdf files of patterns when we can download them ourselves if we have the links available? There may be a copyright issue involved!
