...sewn


 How cute is he!!??? I recently saw a website that charged a pretty penny to make stuffed animals form your kids' drawings. Maybe we have a new business here.



First, she drew a very basic animal. We then cut out all the parts and traced them onto fabric. We made sure to cut the paper pieces about 1/4" larger that the actual drawing for seam allowance.
 Grace LOVED the fabric!!!

I have never used the zig-zag stitch to applique. I have always done it by hand but, boy, was it ever easy to do it on the machine!

Grace is so proud of what she made today.
