Felt Fantastic!

I've finished my first softie from Karin Neuschutz's Sew Soft Toys from Winterwood Steiner Inspired Toys. I visited the stand at the Stitches and Craft Show and got the book and this pure wool felt. 

This elephant is a present for baby Nora, who turns one next month. Cindy from Perle8's showed me how to do a french knot for baby-safe eyes.

I first saw the softies from the book on Truj's blog- check out her family of piggies! I'm heading out to the Winterwood shop on Saturday to get some hand-dyed felt to make this foxie from the book, which supervised from a shelf at the Stitches and Craft show.
