Ready to put a smile on your face and warm your heart, Pete is the latest in my Carmon's Clowns. Pete is wearing his brightest colors done in pink, green , stripes and polka dots. His face is embroidered with green eyes and an silly red smile. Huge ears and green curly hair help give Pete this
winning look.
Huge oversized shoes and hat accented with pink pompoms add a final touch to this endearing little fellow.
Pete stands with his arms out to show you how big he is..he says that he is 29 inches tall with his hat on!
A little bashful, Pete whispered in my ear that he would love for someone to take him home!
Age recommendations for Pete are preteen and up!

Inspiration / Story behind this Product:

Pete is one of my Clowns from Carmon's Cuties. It took several days to make him as time is spent cutting out the body, hand stithing the facial features,and then sewing it together.Next comes the stuffing. Head and body must be stuffed firmly and evenly. The hair is hand stitched to the head after the body is completed. Pete's hair was very slow and tedious because of the way his head is shaped. The yarn loops had to be formed and then hand stitched to the body. While most of him could be done by machine, the hand stitching is time consuming! His clothing took another day to cut and stitch. It would be fair to say that it has taken me almost 5 days to create Pete. The end result is worth the extra time, don't you think?
