Notes

A yarn burrow for a trap door spider and its prey:
Green Lynx Spider for Luca
Sonoran Bumblebee for Luca
Roly Poly for Luca
Fig / Fruit Beetle for Luca
The Arizona Spider Wasp preys upon trap door spiders and tarantulas.

An Arizona Bark Scorpion for Luca, for drama.

A Death’s Head Hawk Moth in there for good measure.

Making the fpdc and bpdc in random arrangements along with scattered dc’s and tc’s.

I made this designer’s Peppermint the Polar Bear.
So cute.
Her designs are delightful and well written.
