I've been perusing the blog Word of Wisdom Living lately.

I love the fabrics in this little quilt.

I'd love to make one of these for my toddlers-- I could see it occupying one 2 year old I know for quite a while.

I had to MAKE something

My niece’s 1st birthday is next week. The easy, rational thing to do would be to go to a toy store and buy something for her…but I can’t do anything the easy way. I found a teddy bear pattern on the internet, spent hours cutting little pieces and sewing them together. But I must say I love the results!

I was so excited when I figured out how to shape the head and make eye sockets! It looks like a real teddy bear, not just a glorified pillow!

Now, to wrap it up and send it away. I’ll probably never see it again.

I’ll have to make one for myself.

UPDATE:
Jonah had him for 30 seconds and the head popped off.
I bought puzzles.
