Stitchin Time

Yesterday, Alexander and had some special time together - which is too rare these days. After a relaxing walk together at the shops, we decided to make a cuddly monster together. We started with him drawing the design (you can see the lines behind the exciting colouring)
From here we traced the lines and made a pattern.
Out to the shed, Alexander picked some fabrics from the stash and we cut them out.He maintained his enthusiasm throughout the project and sat and chatted while I sewed up the pieces.Once sewn together, Alexander used Crayola fabric textas to draw the face on.

He helped me stuff the pieces- I hand stitched the hole and ta-da, a lovely cuddly!

And very happy little boy......
