You can never have enough...

[Mica]

Mica, you could always hand embroider the ears using 'Turkey Stitch' to get the fluffy look.  I use it when embroidering hair and fur and want that 3D look and feel.

That's awesome the ornament was rescued, Jan.  Amazing the little girl saw it and I would think any mum would have thought the same.

Thanks for stitch recommendation  I changed my mind and went with free motion zigzags  to make the mane decided to leave the ears for now still pondering.

Very strong winds and scattering of rain this afternoon can feel the temperature  dropping
