Pincushon

Yesterday I wanted to use up some scraps and leftovers, and I didn't have a pincushon, so the Papero (italian for duck) was born.

Made from cotton jersey leftovers, stuffed with fabric scraps.

Clearly the black duck in the family... :(

I'm not sure if I understand the expression, but the colour is because it's made from leftovers from my own clothes, and the chances of them being non-black is not exactly zero, but quite slim.


There is also an injoke about the shape that implies that it is enthusiastically consenting to being pricked with pins, but that's untranslatable from Italian.
