OPAM - Squiddley is created............

At the end of last week I was determined to make up Squiddley who had arrived very quickly from Clare's Craftroom in Australia.

I decided to use some fabric that I had in my sewing room, a nice bright green.  The body fabric is called Daisy Chain by Amy Butler for Rowan fabrics.  I thought it would look good on my new friend here.

I was lucky enough to win a giveaway over at Paper and String a couple of years ago and this included the white pom pom trim.  Sophie and I thought that it would add to Squiddley. 

Squiddley was fun to make, adding the stuffing was tricky and he used quite a bit to get him nice and firm but on the other hand I now have a bit of space in my fabric box.  Using what I have, (which is not much really, no honest), has been a feature of 2011 and I intend of carrying on with this into 2012.

Many thanks Clare for sending the Squiddley pattern, it put a smile on all of our faces.
