Crafty

Sometimes I like to make people things. Actually, I like making things for people a lot. There is something to be said for putting in a little effort into making something that you can give away to a person who you know will be grateful.

The following are just three wee stuffies/pillows I made for my Erin, Heather and Kelsey.

Erin moved away to SFU in the spring for school, and as she is rather attached to our cat Smudge I chose to make her a little 'bean cat' replica of him that she could take with her.


That lead me to just wanting to make something cute for Heather too. So flying elephant it is!


And well, as for Kelsey, she likes owls. I like owls. I especially like making owl pillows. Especially when they look kooky like this one:


All stuffy/pillow's are made of arctic fleece with felt for detailing and regular ol' pillow stuffing for the cushy goodness. As far as making a pattern goes, I would recommend using newspaper to cut out ideas and from there alter to your requirements.
