If you can think of anything for the sitter and her hubby that'd be great too. Thanks!!!
I'm making some felt "monsters" for my ex-DIL's two sons, about 5 and 1 1/2 yrs, as I won't leave them out when giving Xmas presents to my grandchildren. Just cut 2 shapes from felt , sew together leaving an opening for stuffing, sew on buttons for eyes (embroider for younger kids), embroider or applique faces, maybe attach feet and arms. Stuff with cotton or beans. If you want to make these larger you could button the opening and use as toy bags.
