How To Customise Your Dragon.......

First crochet him (her?) in shades of brightest pink.....
...add some coppery sequins to the face and top of back.
Sew some orangey sequins to the underbelly and chin, as well as some silver bugle beads to the claws on the wings.
Stand back and admire!

If I was making this for myself, I would have stiffened the wings with either wire or fabric stiffener, but as this is going to a child, I left them soft and floppy in case of cuddles.

This dragon is made using a pattern by Lucy Collin - hats off to her cute and easy-to-make design!
