Happy Norwich Trans Pride picnic day! I stress made some worm plushies.

Message me if you're interested in reserving one from the next batch. 💙❤️💟❤️💙
Blanket in a field with nine plushies, some have ribbon bows, each is a metre long that all look like Worm On A String toys, and three smaller ones, plus a pile of tiny ones. A trans flag flies in the foreground.
