Still can't get the @bones-of-a-rabbit 's story out of my head...
Update: a lot of people have asked about a link to the fic. I left it in the last post, but I'm duplicating it again for ease of searching :)

A custom fox
Usually, as you know, I repair stuffed animals and dolls. It's the original that matters, the story and memories they hold. A new one wouldn't be the same. But once in a very blue moon, I make a custom animal to match another. Very blue moon because I really can't replicate commercial stuffed animals. I'm making them by hand and it doesn't look the same. But in this case, it was a former patient's family that reached out to me. That patient, Bunny, just wanted a new spa. But since Bunny had been in the hospital, there was a new addition to the family, a little girl, who really loved.... well a toy fox her mom's best friend had made for her. They wanted a new, sturdier fox, close enough so the little girl (15 months old) would accept it. They had the original book the pattern for the fox came from. Could I help?
Well, of course I said Bunny could come back for a spa, and I'd see what I could do for the fox twin. Here is Bunny, in his spa (he's from Goodnight Moon):
And here's the original fox. You may be able to tell he's mostly felt. That's part of why he's wearing so quickly:
Bunny didn't need a new heart, he had one from his last spa, and it went back in:
Meanwhile, we had to choose fabrics for the fox, both his main fur and his torso fabric:
Soon, Bunny was ready to go home, but he had to wait for Fox to finish being created, which took a touch longer:
But not too long... here's Fox ready to go meet his family:
Great! said their family. And the pair flew home to Maryland.
