Here is a link to a wonderful site. I am dying to know where this fabric comes from, that she makes her toys from. Does anyone recognise any of this fabric.

She says they are painted, and by the looks of them they were painted after being made

Really? I didn't read that ..let me go back and do another read.

In FAQ says pattern is printed on fabric.

Ahh ok thanks....

If you click on the doll link it actually shows the pattern panel. So definitely is pre-printed. Thanks for sharing the site, the animals look really sweet...

I wonder if she prints her own fabric? :D:D:D

They are really cute but I would never get them painted.

Ok we corresponded. She designs them and they are printed by a company, in color, on white cotton. They come with the shapes drawn and instructions. All you have to do is sew them together. She said that she would sell wholesale if you bought 10 kits. The animal kits are 10.00 wholesale, as compared to 18.00 retail.

Will check with some of my friends and see if I can come up with 10 kits. I really like the elephant, the donkey and the hen. 10.00 is not bad, considering all the work is already done for you.
