Worked on him some more and came up with Blue Jay 2.0. :) I think there'll be a Blue Jay 2.5 before I make the pattern available. There's still something about his wings I'm not crazy about.
The differences with Blue Jay 2.0:
- His beak is wider - I think I like the original beak better
- His wings are shaped differently - Still not content with them
- He has yarn knot eyes - My feeling is that the plastic/shiny eyes are a better fit
- His tail has been reshaped - I like this tail a lot better
- His body is crocheted all in one piece - The original was two halve, sewn together, figuring that it would make for a cleaner transition between the two colors. Sewing his tail over the transition point, though, camouflages it nicely.
Stay tuned! :)
