I never thought I would enjoy making stuffed toys. After seeing all the darling "stuffeds" that others make...I was curious. Much to my surprise it is really fun. Meet my latest soft toy froggy. She still needs a wiggly smile and a lily pad!
Yesterday I found an old suitcase at an estate sale and decided it would be the perfect place for the stuffeds. It was the last day of the estate sale and everything was 1/2 off the marked price. JACKPOT!!! (Nevermind that Mom locked her keys in her van and had to be rescued. Or that I was originally asked to meet her to help her move a table and chairs, not to shop at the estate sale.) Oh the goodness...old suitcase, tableclothes, art books, punchneedle with the accessories, floral prints, and a few books for the boys. I think the green tablecloth will make nice seat covers for the chairs in my "activity room."
Can you believe only a $1.50 for this suit case. It is in need of some tlc, but it will be great for the frog and other soft toys.
Now the most difficult decision....what to make with the other napkins and tablecloth.
