Teddy Bears Picnic

  This week Victor, who was named after my dad, is coming on the picnic.  Luckily he has thick fur as it's pretty chilly this morning in Melbourne.  His little friend Harry will need to put on a coat and hat before he ventures outside.
Share a Bear or Softie
Do you have a bear, dolly or softie who is brave enough to venture out into the chilly great outdoors for a picnic today.  Just put your details into Mr Linky and you can join in the fun.

  Fabulous Free Things

With a new baby in the family I looked for cute softies for babies this week. 

I do love this adorable little monster and he comes with a fabulous tutorial from Nina at ninananna. You can get the pattern HERE.

Who could resist Molly Monkey. A great, really detailed, pattern is available HERE Many thanks to Larissa at mmmcrafts

And then there isdear Little Lambkin who is kindly shared at Patternbee. She can also be made in felt.  Don't forget to embroider the eyes instead of using buttons if you make softies for babies and little children.

 Thank you so much to the talented and generous designers who have shared these patterns with us.
