Handmade baby mobile

Another little baby project for beautiful little Noah. Pretty explanatory from the pics, didn't use a pattern this time just made it up as I went along but makes the cutest pressie!

Handmade baby bunny

To welcome my lovely new little nephew Noah, I've been busy nesting away and here are the results. Step by step to a little felt bunny!


Cutting out all the pieces, making sure everything is ironed flat and then hand stitching on his little face using blanket stitch.





Sewing all the pieces together and then turning inside out and stuffing - then sewing closed!

Today I made a small fox

This evening I took a break from drawing and thought I'd get all crafty! It's nearly my beautiful niece Grace's 2nd birthday and so I set about making a wee soft toy for her, here's the story! Admit I did a lot of unpicking along the way and double stitched the arms and legs on in the wrong place- twice.. eek! Feeling chuffed with myself for no good reason!
Lets start at the very beginning... (Be warned, I am a beginner and therefor very botcho!!)
Supplies needed: A simplicity Pattern K1549, Sewing machine, threads, contrasting felt remnants and patterned fabric, stuffing and a needle.
   

 
And looking very attractive inside out!                            Followed by some very messy hand stitching on foxy's noggin!                       

 Sewed the final eyes in place and voila....! x
