Quilava

I made a small version of this ages ago (not pictured here--I'll try to take one later), but didn't have the color yarn for the back, so I couldn't finish a normal size. Then of course I got it but I didn't have the material for the legs with me. Finally over Thanksgiving I managed to get all the pieces together and I was able to finish it today (in between working on my Christmas gifts and doing school work, of course ~_^). Hope you like it!
