Nice work! They are all very cute.

smagruder 01-21-2012 06:02 AM

How adorable... you could make a bundle selling them, I think. I agree with twixbar... the plaid one caught my eyes also. I have a tiny bit of Irish in me....lol

CindyFaye 01-21-2012 06:41 AM

These are absolutely adorable! I would ask for the patterns, but I don't like to stuff things. I am gonna be a grandma in August and know that I need one of those, so when you and your mother figure out some prices, please email me and I may need to purchase [email protected] Thanks and keep up the good work!!!!!

the eyes are safety eyes, so they look like real eyes and they are clamped on and they don't come off at all. that makes them safe for little ones. the toys that have buttons/sparkles on them are for my own kids who are too old to chew on buttons.

both are correct i think. didn't use a pattern so i don't know.

no, i just made the doll based on the drawing.

most of them are for my own kids. i am starting to make them to sell. i wanted to save up a bunch for the craft fair my grandmother is running next nov but it seems like every one i make gets snatched up faster than i can finish them...lol.

I hope you will creatively choose to make your cuties safe for the little ones who will love them.

there are no choking hazards on any of them other than the ones that are specifically for my older kids

i started with a 3 1/2" square for the back and a 5" square for the front. pleat in the middle(just guess, don't iron) put a pin in each pleat and sew around the edge leaving about an inch and half open for turning and stuffing. not that complex just time consuming. the quilt is baby sized and has 120 'biscuits' plus border. do it while watching tv and have some extra machine needles cause you might break a couple while assembling.

the frog pattern was just copied on paper, i got it at a yardsale, it's really old. it's a beginner pattern. it starts kind of egg shaped and the arms and legs are the same top and bottom. there is a dart added to the nose and bottom to make it more 3d. the eyes are circles, just do a lose stitch around the edge and pull it tight.

bluekrissyspikes 01-21-2012 01:56 PM

Thank you everyone for the compliments, i didn't expect this. i am getting alot of requests and yes, i am willing to make some to sell and ship them out but keep in mind i am in canada not the us. please pm me with requests. i will do my best.

Carol Jean 01-21-2012 04:52 PM

Wow, they are really cute. You did a nice job. I really like the way you incorporated the drawings. The scotty dogs are my favorite. A big A+ for you.

Quiltbeagle 01-21-2012 05:35 PM

They're all nice but I just love the lovey dog! It looks like a stuffed dog I had when I was younger, but his name was Scroungy. Do you make a pattern for it or did you just wing it? I'd love to be able to make one.
