Monday Makers! #12 :)

Yay Monday Makers! time again - time to start something new! I knew what I was going to start for this episode of MM so late last night I got busy with some pink fleece fabric - I like using Joann Fabrics' Soft N Comfy Dot Fabric - it's like a faux minkee, and I have lots of it in stash from frequent Buffalo runs (I buy it with a coupon or when it's on sale :D).  I'm making a fox stuffy from this tutorial :)

I got all the pattern pieces drafted onto cardboard templates, and traced the pieces onto the fleece.   I started sewing today - she now has a nose and eyes, lol.  I should have her finished soon - she's very simple but REALLY cute :)




Last week's new Monday project was an orange shark - I got him completed very quickly, and am SO pleased with how he turned out.  He's actually going to the brother of the recipient of the pink fox - there will be a 3rd stuffy as well, for their brother - stay tuned - that one will be a Monday Makers! project as well, lol!

    Have never thought to trace patterns onto cardboard and then use as templates to trace onto the fabric. Clever way to do it. I'm thinking the knit fabric wouldn't stretch as much as pinning thin paper.

    I think you must be the quickest sewist in blogland! I'm looking forward to seeing this fox :)
