I love it. Did you stuff it or does it keeps it shape (more or less) if you use a fairly stiff stabiliser? And a second question: did you sew it by hand or machine?

Gorgeous fabrics! In my house the dogs would fight the mathematicians over who got to play with it. It would make a nice centerpiece too I think.
