“Anyone seen my Lily Pad? It was about this big!”

This Frog ‘Doorstop Dumpy’ was made from the pattern I designed. It was made out of green cottons and patch worked together. I added some coordinating ribbon around the waist  and used old buttons for the Frog’s eyes and to decorated the ribbon. As finishing touches I made a tongue and dragonfly out of fascinate r fabrics. This character ‘Doorstop Dumpy’ will hold back any standard door and decorate your room too!

Frog ‘Doorstop Dumpy’

I have been designing and creating patterns for what I have called my ‘Doorstop Dumpies’. Sizeable and weighty little decorative characters for a practical purpose. Each and everyone – UNIQUE!

Meet my green, spotty, cotton fabric, frog ‘Doorstop Dumpy’ creation – Fredrick. Decorated with old buttons for eyes and around his waist trim, this rather handsome chap, dressed to the nines, has collar and velvet bow tie. He’s quite literally dressed to impress as he holds open the door for you whilst greeting you with a red ribbon rose!

The Dormouse has the key! ‘Doorstop Dumpy’

The pattern I created for this ‘Doorstop Dumpy’ was more successful than I ever thought it would be when first putting it together. As always it has an inner fabric sack sealed with cat litter inside to give it the weight to hold back a standard door. I think ‘She looks very demure with her her mop cap and lace trimmings. Another creation I like to adorn with old buttons. The spare curtain ring, which has been floating around my house for years, at last gets a new purpose too!
