What fun..except now I've been singing the song over and over!!! The jacket on the Bobby is paper pieced. I'll send a card of blue and green with flowers to our recipient today. This one doesn't seem to work for that.

As I scanned the page at first I thought I saw a Canadian RCMP but this certainly is an English bobbie. The headgear is different but it looks like RCMP dress uniform, I can see where we get it from. This is just perfect for today's challenge.

Your card works perfectly for todays challenge and its perfect to send to Pat! The challenge requested all things English and this is certainly that! What a cute and fun little Bobbie! A Bobbie and buttons, a great card!

Anne, I like your Bobby - he the epitome of the perfect British Bobby! PS Sorry about the song - if it's any consolation - it's been running around my head, too.
