- aka Mr Mini Fluffy (or was it Fluffy Mini? I forget…)
I borrowed Fanciful Felties from our trusty library the other day, and left it in the living room, where it was found by Daniel. He cheerfully proceeded to flipping through the entire book, oohing and aahing along, until he decided on his favourite project. His big brother went to a birthday party, leaving us a quite afternoon, perfect for taking on a cute project…
I don’t have wool felt, but I had some eco-fi felt from our nearest dollar store that needed to be used, and it worked just fine. Daniel then insisted on going through my pile of scraps to find a suitable skin coloured piece for the face.
It was a fun way to try my hand at free-motion machine stitching. Nest time though, I might do the stitching before cutting out the fabric – the small cotton piece was a little hard to manoeuvre…
We added the arms and a suitcase, and Mr. fluffy was then whisked away by his happy recipient….
I really like the style of this book, and hope to make ms. fox one of these days. If you haven’t done so yet, you can check out the Samantha Cotterill’s website and blog right here.
