My Thursday was spent with these little guys :
Ella, Emmalie, Sophia, and Owen's kitty's - notice Owen trying to get his back? |
At breakfast I asked Ella if I could make her a kitty. I told her I knew it wasn't the same as a real kitty, but would it help? Her face lit up a little, and she agreed. That led to all four of the kids picking fabrics for their own kitty, and just before bedtime, I finished closing up the seams. They all helped to stuff them too.
They are the free Amy Butler pattern and cute and relatively easy. The only changes we made: they have a smile, and eyelashes. I think they look less alien like :)
I will select a winner for the Layer Cake on Tuesday, the 27th - Good Luck!
Amy
