I’m going to visit some friends in the States next month, which means a) I have zero cash to spend on fun weekend activities, and b) I was in need of some cool thank-you presents to dole out after staying on people’s couches and spare beds. So here’s what I whipped up over Saturday and Sunday! The pattern is from a book called Softies, which I’ve been keen to get into ever since my lovely friend Leah gave it to me for Christmas. I was so pleased, because for once my creation actually ended up looking like the one in the book! There’s lots of leftover material and stuffing too, so I might throw a few more together for Meet Me at Mike’s Softies for Mirabel drive. Um, and Leah should get one too.
