That is great, just love it. I made the one that is similar by Amy Butler. Actually I made two, a green tropical print for my grandson and another for my grand daughter made from the Alice fabric that her nursery stuff is made from. Both turned out really cute.

I think the hardest part was the stuffing. It takes a lot of stuffing to fill them up and they need to be pretty solid to work and look good. I used polyfill around the outside and top, but I kind of hollowed that out and used rags and snippits of foam and even a bunch of plastic bags. I read on line that many people use newspaper. I didn't go that far, but I did get creative.
