Jay took this photo and told me he has taken that particular croc of mine off the dogs beds the last couple of nights but it wasn’t being chewed so he didn’t think much of it and then he saw Prancer just now.

She’s Mummy’s girl for sure, loves it when I’m at home working on commissions so she can cuddle up beside me đŸ¶ đŸ§¶ ❀

Some of you who have been to the shop in the last few weeks may have met “Sweetheart” the 6ft long crocodile my amazing man made without a pattern just an idea and his determination. I was so incredibly proud of him because 2 years ago he could hardly make a blanket when he started and now look at him!

This pride swelled to a whole other level on Tuesday when sweetheart was sold to a customer who fell in love with Jays phenomenal creation!

We’re currently working on a pattern for Sweetheart who Jay has informed me he named after a famous crocodile from back home in Australia for anyone who may be curious about the name.

We know sweetheart has gone to a loving home but the shop just isn’t the same without him. Jay McGrath
