One of the most ubiquitous flannel rhymes I’ve seen is Little Mouse, or a variation thereof. (Jbrary even has a blog post roundup with lots of inspirational variations!) I knew I had to make my own. I made my houses using gridded paper to keep them straight and even, and wanted my mouse to be special. I did a image search until I found one I really liked, then traced it from the screen (I have no printer at home and we were on lockdown at the time!) Then came the design of the layers, and painstaking, tweezer-using assembly! In the end, I had a mouse I loved, with a variety of houses to hide in.
