Look What I Got!

Look what I got in the mail yesterday - how exciting is that!? I missed the first round of pattern books but as soon as Hillary reprinted them I placed my order. She makes such wonderful things and her design and presentation of everything is just lovely. It was her blog (and Loobylu) which inspired me in the first place to start a blog of my own and she has been an inspiration ever since.
I am not very good at following patterns or at making softies for that matter, but I sure am going to give these cuties a try - I just hope I don't botch them up! Even W said he is tempted to make one, which is just fantastic! I would love him to have a crafty night with me sometime, it would certainly be a change. I bet he would be great too heehee.

I got mine right before I broke my foot, so I haven't made one yet, either! ::sniff, sniff::
I can't wait to see what you create!

I've got the book too! Can't wait to see your softie from the patterns. :D

It's a great book and such an easy to follow pattern. I'm sure you'll have no problems following it Max :-)
Will sort out some buttons for you soon x

Oh Max, you will love Hillary's book. Her patterns are easy to follow, you'll have no trouble. Enjoy and stay cool. I had Ian in the hot summer months and I know the minute after he was born my body temp must have lowered at least 10 degrees!

I was tempted into making the bunny. Almost as much fun as making your own is looking at all the creations over on Hillary's Flickr site. It is amazing seeing all the individuals created from the same pattern. Have fun.
