“toys to sew” book
Here’s another one of my favorite books to giveaway- toys to sew: dozens of patterns for dolls, animals, doll clothes and accessories by Claire Garland. This is one of my favorites because of the easy projects and a chapter dedicated to FELT critters!
Claire shows you how to make a simple ragdoll and some simple clothing for her. She also offers variations of the basic doll, there is a ballerina, angel, pirate and a boy. She includes templates for clothing as well.
Claire also has directions and patterns for various animals: elephant, crocodile, turtle, bear, a pull-along elephant, sock dog, monkey, tiger and puppy.
The sewing with felt chapter has a lot of fun critters. She has directions for felt dinosaurs, dino egg bag,
hobby horse, cat and mouse skittles game,
bears, a retro tea set, and these super cute felt houses!

Oooh, I just love the looks of this book. Last week I was at Pottery Barn for Kids and saw some of their cute softies including a very similarly styled mouse. (I wonder if PBK STOLE the idea from this book? Hmmmm.) I was wondering if I’d be able to figure out how to make one with my nieces. This book would do the trick! Thanks for the tip.
