Christy Has Santa Come Yet?
By Nancy Dontigney
11 inches
Christy has been waiting patiently for Santa. She was created with sparse mohair. Her sweet expression is achieved with glass google eyes, a needle felted nose, and gentle shading. She wears a red flannel snowflake print nightgown and red hair bow. Her paws are wool felt and she is 5 way jointed with lock nuts and bolts. Of course, she never goes anywhere without her well loved Teddy.

My Information:
Hi, I'm Nancy Dontigney of Dog Patch Critters.
When I was doing craft shows in the late 80's to early 90's, making muslin bunnies and small plush thread jointed bears, someone at a show suggested I make a mohair bear. I was also a Veterinary Technician and dog breeder during this time, thus the name "Dog Patch Critters".
Although I have been designing and making bears and other critters since 1993, I feel the new techniques, like needle felting and hand shading, that I've learned in the last 2 years have helped me truly express my sense of humor and creativity.
My critters tend toward the whimsical and most are 6"(15cm) to 12" (30cm). Although most are one of a kind, I occasionally do a small limited edition. I also like series, one of a kind with a theme. My current series is called "Puppy Grrls". Little girl dogs with dresses made with doggie prints.
All Dog Patch Critters come with a sewn in label and a signed, laminated hang tag.
Dog Patch Critters are adult collectibles and not intended for children.
