Turtley bonkers!

My year 7s are making soft toys with the fabric that we tie dyed and I'm busy making a cockerel with one class and this turtle with the other (they choose the designs for me to do to demonstrate skills as we go).

I started trying to add some patterns on the shell today with a pile of tangled thread and I'm beginning to wish I hadn't. I reckon I've about another two hours to go.

Edit: I finished in under an hour .... go me!!
