Was recently at the quilting shop with my son and he saw some samples of these. The rest is history and I ended up leaving with a pattern in hand. They are really tiny. The one shown measures about 3 1/4" x 3 1/4". Imagine sewing through all the layers and then turning it right side out! If you unzip the toy, a tongue comes flying out! Just as amusing for the adults as kids! I will be making some of these in different styles. I great project to do if you need practice with zippers... which I did. I used up a lot of scrap material from some other projects.

About Me
- wearartbyjulie
- I enjoy silversmithing, making jewelry, beads and working with paracord. I sculpt in polymer clay and desert themes are my favorite. I'm always looking for ways to incorporate the beauty of nature into my work. My work has been published in a large book called "1000 Beads," Lark Jewelry and Beading, 2014. I have sold beads through the Glendale Bead Museum Shop, a gallery in Tucson and www.wearartbyjulie.etsy.com. I'm an artist currently showing my jewelry at the Shemer Art Center in Phoenix, AZ.
