Valentine Mouse Finger Puppet
This mouse finger puppet was adapted from Finger Puppets 12 Designs to Crochet by Susan Pippen. Leisure Arts published the vintage Leaflet, number 435, in 1986.
I love these ami style finger puppets and have blogged about them before. I decided to make a Valentine's themed one when I found a shortage of Valentine's themed toy patterns. When I have shopped for Valentine’s toys in the store, I have found most are traditional toys created in holiday colors. Since I did not have a Valentine's finger puppet pattern, I decided to create one using the same theory. I took a regular finger puppet pattern and simply changed the color. I am thinking about doing the same for St. Patrick's Day.
The box is now full, taped, and addressed and ready to head off to its new home filled with Valentine goodies. I have one American Girl Dress almost done for my local package. I need to work on the Barbie Valentine Ball Gown, which I believe is going to be in pink this time.

Bailey, I do not know how you can keep showing up new things every single day! It's amazing. I envious of your motivation.
He is really cute. You could stuff him with cotton and sew the finger opening and market it as a cat toy. Mine would love it!
You are one busy lady. Seriously, I feel like a schmuck when I see what you accomplish. You're AMAZING!
