Stuffed!

Do you know how much 1kg polyester toy filling is? I didn't until yesterday anyway, as this is actually the first toy/cushion I've made that needed stuffing. Well, this big fellow swallowed about 250g. And now you can guess what I'm going to do with the remaining 750g....Exactly, the elephant needs a family!

Leoni is not in the mood for a bit of sewing at the moment, so I cut out the first elephant last night myself. I'm going to stitch him together today, but need to go in the town first to get the filling before he can take shape.

And here are the pink sun hats:

I thought I'd let you know what I'm currently working on:

The pink version is currently in progress....

Sping has finally arrived in Scotland. I always find it amazing how everything goes from grey and bare, almost looking dead, to green and full of life as soon as the sun comes out and the temperatures rise.

Whishing you all a lovely, sunny weekend!

I hope you all had a good Easter. We did an egg hunt in our garden at quarter past seven (7!) on Sunday morning. On school days I'm struggling to get Leoni out of bed at 8!!! Anyway, it was good fun.

When I was reading through the blogs that I follow, I found this enourmous big "Easter egg" as a free ebook on the Farbenmix website:

I think this will be our next mother-daughter-sew-together project...

If would like to have this ebook (in German), please email me and I will forward it to you.

Whishing you all a lovely, sunny Easter!
