One is never too old for a lovey! I am 68 and mine (an old teddy bear) sits right in my sewing room on his own special shelf! Good for you. He will grow up to be sweet and tender with a good gramma like you to provide loveys!

That's exactly what I was thinking. Just let a kid be a kid for a while. Gee whiz! I bet you will have a happy little camper after this. Good for you!

that is so adorable. Don't you hate how some people make decisions for the child? My DS is not a baby anymore, but he still remembers and wants to keep his "mousey pillow" . He is 11 and while he may not want to parade it in front of his friends, he still wants to know it is in his room.
was minky hard to sew?

I don't think I could do a tutorial. Just go to Cotton Ginney's on the net and look for the pattern. You can't miss it! But thanks for asking!

Know of a similar experience. One thought the child too old for such nonsense, and so he chose to leave it at the other house where it was okay. He is now 9+ and still loves his blanket.
