Sleepy Lamb Mobile

Here it is, after months of silence. My little lamby mobile:



It turned out cuter than I expected although tying the lambs to the rig is a pain. I have yet to find the right kind of string/thread to hang them by and so they inevitably break or tangle or end up higher/lower than I wanted. Please please leave a comment and give me suggestions for this as I LOVE making mobiles but this is driving me insane.

    Hey sweetheart, I love your Dinosaur Tutorial and pattern, Thanks for having them be free!!

    I have made mobile's before and I use fishing line to hang the "sheep" I usuallt thread the fishing line all the way through the "sheep" down through the belly and thread it through a button, then back up to the top of the back of the "sheep" and knot it there. The button helps the sheep not rip. and it's pretty clear so it looks pretty also.
    Good luck sweetie! and Thanks again!

    1. Thanks for the lovely kind words Tabatha! I'll definitely try the tip- seems very sensible (something I should try a bit more, I think!)
