Ric Rac Holiday Fun


Some of you may remember that my little neighbour over the road got a sewing machine for Christmas . . .

My good friend Jodie, suggested that we work through her child friendly patterns to make some softies . . .

When it was her birthday, I made her this Whale Pincushion, which was very handy on our sewing day.  Another of Jodie's patterns. I made one for myself too, but still haven't stuffed it . . . must do that!
 

Last holidays we made the Seal - Pickle - lesson one.
She loved it, and was keen for lesson two!

So this holidays we made Sally!

When I was printing the pattern, I accidently did one an A4 size, so thought I'd make a smaller one to give to another little friend . . . yes, Willy!

I didn't get a finished photo of Brookes, as she is taking it to bed each night, but here is my little one all finished, and I just love it.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Our next project together will be Smith, the next dog on the pattern.
 

Great Pattern my clever friend - thanks

This is so adorable, it just makes ones heart feel happy.

I think it is really sweet and neat that you are teaching a young lady to sew.
