So for the "littles" on my Christmas list this year, I decided to do the same. I found this pattern at an estate sale and knew I was going to have to make a couple of these for Christmas gifts.
Aren't they the cutest??
So this past week I have been busy, cutting and sewing and stuffing and swearing.
Some of the parts were a little fiddly, but I wasn't going to give up and I am so pleased with the result.
I used the stuffed animals as package toppers for the "littles" gifts!
A blue polka dot dog with red and white polka dot ears that can't wait for a little 2 year old boy to give him kisses.
The red and white polka dot dog with black and white gingham ears is looking forward to spending some quality time with a 4 month old little boy. (I will tell his mom to either cut the tongue off or hang on to this puppy until he is old enough not to chew it off!)
A pretty yellow kitty for a precious 2 year old girl..
Hello polka dot kitty, hope you enjoy your new home with my sweet 6 year old great neice.
And until Christmas I will enjoy this menagerie under my Christmas tree!
Hope everyone has a great week!
Blessings
Linda

Very cute. I love when packages have fun things on them. My DIL does the best wrapping. I am attempting sock animals. I don't sew with a machine. I had fits with the first one but hope the next ones goes better, hah.
Love your little critters! I have a soft spot in my heart for yellow kitty-cats, so that one is my favorite.
What a sweetheart you are! Those precious little animals are so delightful...they will never want to let them go. I need to rethink my gift giving...more homemade and less storebought. Your gifting shows how much you care. =D
Linda these are darling..I have always wanted to do one of these older patterns....Did you find it difficult? Smiles..Renee

Oh Linda these are precious I love them. You did a wonderful job making them, I know what it takes and it's a lot of work. I have one PJ dog here cut out of flannel which is not done yet you have inspired me to get with the program!
Hi Linda,
Oh...I just love your sweet vintage critters and so will the little ones. You have been busy and doesn't it feel great knowing that you have made these yourself. I love sewing for the little ones in my life, too.
Blessings to you and thank you so much for your kind comment on my blog.

The animals came out so nice! I bet you're happy that you persisted and putzed and got them to turn out! Little people are going to be very happy just looking at the box!
