    Take a cereal bag to make a baby toy...

    I printed out the pattern where you take the cereal bag, wash it, cut it, add fabric "tails" but can't remember if there is batting or not...anyone help me?

    Found the link... http://www.cucicucicoo.com/2014/02/h...ggie-baby-toy/

    I made these out of fleece so they had the added advantage of being a small "snuggly".

    True, no batting but plastic pet food bags work also, they just make a different sound.
    If you always do, what you have always done, The results never change. Change is the wings you give yourself.

    I do not buy cereal but sure have pet food bags, want to make some for GGS who is almost 7 months.
    Thank you for the extra hint of what to use inside the toy.
    sewnbug and maviskw, I have not used the company in a long time but they sure do have neat things at good prices.
    Thank you for the reminder.

    Thanks for the link. I wondered what was used for the crinkly part - now I know.

    I made a lot of them for baby gift. I tried many material (cotton, minky, flanel, satin...) and made some with batting, some without. Because you want it to be souple but still to have body, I had the best result when using flannel in the middle for batting.
