A Softie From LucyKate Crafts

I have always loved the softies made by LucyKate Crafts and wanted to try the pattern she had as a project in the first edition of 'Sew Hip' magazine. So, here it is. Obviously, I don't have the flair that she has for this kind of thing. Her projects seem to have a life of their own where my copy looks...well, lifeless. BUT, it was only my first attempt.

I Can't Believe It...

...But my friend's little girl will be one at the end of the month. This is what I have made her - and which took aaaagggeeeeess to stitch! I really hope she likes it.



I had all the threads already, and managed to find a nice frame in The Range. I cut the pink mini-border to highlight the fact that she is a girl, because the teddy is blue. I am not the best at stretching the fabric, but I couldn't afford to have it done professionally. I think I have done a pretty good job if I say so myself!
