My friend, who works in a vet's office, complains about the holes in the wings all the time. You'll notice I don't have them in mine :-)

The thing about my pattern pieces is that I would try to sketch the bigger pieces out on paper first, but then when I sewed the felt pieces together I had to make a lot of adjustments, so what paper patterns I have are probably way off. Some smaller pieces I just cut from felt freehand. Oh well, he's only my second, I'm still learning as I go. When I was a kid I tried a couple small plush animals from books and kits, but trust me you don't want to see those! It put me off the idea for years.
