Here's a lovely little fellow (somehow all of my Hoots are male, even the ones with girls' names).Isn't he cute? He's made from a variety of fabrics I've picked up in Spotlight, online, and had in the stash. The polka dots are a Michael Miller, the reverse side is an Anna Maria Horner. I can't remember what the front is! His ears and feet are Michael Miller too...
But for some reason, I just can't think of a name for him. This is pretty unusual. Normally as I'm creating a softie, the name will pop into my head without too much trouble. Usually I get some inspiration from the fabrics, or the expression in the button eyes, or the overall look.
For example, this weekend at the Shirt and Skirt Market I'll have a new "Miss Havisham" Hoot, a new "Orange Blossom" Hoot, "Tthere's A Butler In My Garden" Hoot, and "The Turquoise Terror".
But blow me down, I CANNOT think of a name for this one. And I don't know why.
Have you any suggestions? Let me know what you think, and you could have a Hoot named in your honour!

Mr Polka Stripe Hoot?
Retro Gambler Hoot?
I've never known you to be lost for a name!
He looks like and Austin Powers hoot to me! That retro fabric on his tummy does it for me!
Have you already had a Marooned Hoot? It works two ways, both for colour and the not-quite-nautical stripes.
Or maybe he's Plumstruck Hoot.
Mr Rockin' Retro well that's what my 5 yr old said lol where she knows that from I don't know :)
Disco Dave? Hm, not quite, but needed a name that started with 'D' : ) Definitely something along the retro line... have a great market on Sunday!
"Can I come to the party" hoot? He looks so eager!
Luther Van Hoot? He's pretty sharp, y'know...
Whodelbrink? WHO-ever he is... he's mighty cute!
