Horsing around with ribbons

I made these wee horses for two teething boys on my last visit to Ireland at the weekend. I love using ribbon and for some reason babies become obsessed with it at this age.

The fabric came from an old "Dunnes stores' t-shirt so it was lovely and soft, perfect for small hands to get a hold on, the ribbon mane was sewed in twice for extra strength and I guess the tail was the most interesting thing about the whole horsey...mmm straight in the mouth!
