Did i tell you about the quilt i am making for a 3 year old girl's birthday? it will have pockets .... to practice zippers, snaps, ties, and velcro. in the pockets will be stuffed pets.
So far, i have a cat and a pig.
And a butterfly, bunny and dog.
Plan A was to put small dolls in the pockets but i couldn't find anything small enough that was soft. so i remembered i had an embroidery CD that makes small animals and i think they will work just fine.
I need to make 3 more. it's hard to decide which ones to make. i like the alligator...but does a 3 year old care about an alligator...or even know what one is? there is a horse, cow, monkey, bear, snail, lion, turtle, koala, whale, tiger, racoon, chick, giraffe, lamb and elephant. hard to choose just 3.
Which 3 would you choose? perhaps i should make extra and send them, too.
While i am contemplating that....i tangled an egg gourd last night. first i painted it with red acrylic paint and then got my permanent marker and had fun.
I like doing these...it helps the brain with quilting designs, too.
This was done in a couple hours...so pretty quick and easy.
Now i have a large queen size quilt on the frame to start on. there is lots and lots of space for playing.
