EB New Year Swap 2010 sent






Here's part of what I sent to Becanne - Mitch the Monkey. The idea was to make something from a list of three. Bec's list of three was more like a list of 20, quite long and open and I deliberated for a while on what to make. In the end I decided to make a softie for her little boy, Jack. Jordan loved Mitch too and before he was packed up for his new home he gave him a good wrestle. It was hard to let him go. Mitch was made using a Funky Friends pattern and I see that Pauline now has kits in store which is a great idea as it can be hard to find fleece in Brisbane during summer. I made a little bag for Mitch to travel in on his journey to Jack's place, for Jack to use either as a library bag or whatever. I accidently deleted the other photos I took before they went so I have "stolen" the first two photos from Bec's blog. Check out the action shot of Mitch on the bike on Bec's blog!

The monkey is so cute, looks very cuddly! I love kits, living in a rural area, fleece is so hard to come by, summer or winter! ...

We love him!
Mitch will have a very good home with us.

(When did Jordan get so BIG! Seems like you only had him yesterday.)

Glad you linked to the pattern. I've looked at their stuff before and know I've seen one made up I'll certainly be buying some of their patterns or kits.

OMG he is to-die-for cute Susan - what a lovely monkey. And a very sweet idea to make a bag for him to travel in too.
