Well friends, we finally dusted off the sewing machine and made some fun here!
I haven't had the desire/energy/motivation to create for months now... so just doing this project on a whim was refreshing indeed.
When daughter Azriel heard the machine start up she looked over with a big grin and asked: "what are you making me, mommy??!". She then eagerly dove right in with helping me stuff little paws and feet...
Voila, our furry little hedgehog/porcupine... thing!
(I'd link a pattern if there was one..but I just invented it).
The next morning Azi woke me up and whispered:
"WAKE up Mommy... we need to sew more porcupines!!"
She barely let me eat breakfast - slave master - and then we whipped up a few friends.
(Hudson's lil' blue guy became a mutant bear thing.. since I flipped the face pieces upside down by mistake.. oops). A fun lil' trio of furries for the kids here.
Have you been creating anything fun lately?
Happy long weekend all!
Mel ;o)
Tee hee, these are totally cute! Love their punky fur and I wanna squish them:)
ReplyDeleteAwesome to see Azi so excited to make things and for you to be feeling a bit better!
I so want one! Can you make me one? I will pay. I am coming home for baby shower on September 29th. I had pet hedgehogs, and I have collection.

ReplyDeleteThanks sweets, I guess I'm feeling a bit more 'ambitious' to create lately.. the mounds of fabric are at least taunting me to organize/use them! ;o) How are you feeling?? xx
