MICKEY MOUSE

A co-worker saw the picture of my Minnie Mouse.  She requested a doll of Mickey Mouse.  This is the pattern that I designed for Mickey Mouse.  Most of the pattern was a simple adaptation of the Minnie Mouse pattern.  This just expands my pattern collection of Disney characters.  I am sure that there will be more to come in the future.
