glamping with very nice mice

little handmade mice with a feed sack tent on a camping trip

The admiral, mrs. croft and friends set out on a holiday camping adventure over the labor day weekend. They are, of course, glampers. The kind of mice who feel a chandelier, china, carpets and a proper bed are bare necessities. (PS – note on the photo – the fire is pretend- photoshopped in)

Do you know some very nice mice who love to camp?

The little tent is made from this free pattern with some adjustments. Print the pattern at 85% and cut out on the cut line. I did not sew it. It’s just one layer of fabric (a vintage feedsack I’ve been saving for just this sort of occasion). The edges are raw. It took about 5 minutes to make.

The mice are made from another free sewing pattern.

  1. My very nice mice like to lounge in the shade of the little mushrooms .

  2. My little mice have been camping all summer. They only recently packed their tent away so they can get ready for a big move. Ahhh new campgrounds to explore! Oh, my grandson helped in setting up the campsite and he thought they needed s’mores. So a toothpick, tiny bit of dark cork square and a very tiny white Pom Pom did the trick. ( I wish I could add a photo , but I don’t know how)

    I downloaded the nice move pattern and I have to say they are soooo sweet!! I do have a question, which end is the head and which end is the bottom? The second one I sewed I felt the top really was the bottom or I am cutting and not sewing in deep enough of seam allowance. Help! Haha their heads seem too big and the bottoms can’t make them stand up by themselves.

    • Hi Michelle – please take a closer look at the tutorial – especially step 4 which refers to the nose. And re- standing on their own – sometimes they do and sometimes they don’t – you can put a little weight in the bottom to help – a couple pennies work well.
