yes i am a copy cat...er...bird

Monday, February 22, 2010 |
i swear i have original ideas, but there are so many freaking blogs with better ideas...
just not fair.
case in point, toad's treasures. she comes up with the BEST projects. this is the latest one i am stealing...


the ones on the sides are for my friend who just had twins (ian and abby) and the middle is for my friend who just had her first girl after 3 boys (there was a curse on our circle and we all had boys and...well, a story for another day. btw-her name is elise). i was particularly please with myself because i used extra fabric from this apron and from this one too. i also used left over fabric from this bag. and the rest was from various attempts at projects before i started to blog about them. i did have to purchase the 'fluff' (as parker called it).
so i bet you all wish that...
1. you were my friend and
2. that you had a baby in february.

and my parker wanted to let you know that he stuffed all 3 birds and is now an expert stuffer. i hope he puts that on his resume in 7 years...

**ps i dropped off little elise's owl on saturday and her mom squealed with excitement! made me feel so good!**

These are cute a nice cross between a pillow, toy and decorative item. (I know what you mean about everyone having "better" ideas!!)
