Igor Igel
by Francesca Boretti
7½ inches (19 centimeters)

Please, meet Igor the hedgehog!
He has been crafted as a custom order.

Igor has been entirely designed and hand crafted by myself. I always sew my creations by hand, using my own original designs.
Igor measures 7 � inches (19 cm). I have made him using a 23mm hedgehog mohair from Schulte for the spiky part, and a 16 mm white Helmbold mohair for his belly and legs. Inner ears are of ultra suede.
Igor has German glass eyes, a polymer clay sculpted nose and a needle felted face. His V-shaped hairline has been patiently obtained through mohair rooting into the needle felted forehead.
Legs, face and inner ears are oil shaded.
Igor has an internal body wiring that gives him a wide range of posing possibilities, enabling his head to move up and down, and his body to partially fold. Also his arms are wired and can be bended.
Igor is four ways cotter pin jointed (arms and legs) and stuffed with wool and encased mica granules that give him some nice added weight.

Igor owns a daisies carpet that I specially made for him. He also always travels with his birth certificate, made in matching materials.
