Nearly 30 years ago, I made a little crocheted turtle for each of my boys. My younger son named his TeeTee, and he still has it. A few weeks ago, his almost 7-year-old daughter sent me an email and asked me to make a fabric turtle like her dad's. I already had an idea for the shell, but it took me a little while to figure out the head and body. This is the result.

Now, DGD's twin brother wants one too.

Cuuuuuute!!!

How cute! Love the story behind it too.

That is so cute

When my three boys were little, about 40 years ago, I made each one of them a turtle also, very similar to the one you made. They had a lot of fun playing with them. I remember that one of them was named "Mercury". I can't remember the names of the other two.

Sooo cute!

Awww this turtle is adorable :D:D:D

This is so adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
