I like stuffies for babies without any unsafe parts. Thanks!
My favorite was Tigger that I made for my nephew.
I love those little mice! sarah@forrussia.org
Haven't seen your book, but I'm sure my girls would love the dolls!
Tigger, so cute ♥
i've not seen your book before, but it looks like fun!
My son is 8 months old, and I would love to make him his own doll for his birthday.
I would use the fabric squares as a highlight on a bag.
I like your hanky idea. They would also make a cute bunting to hand up in my kids play area.

I'd use the fabric squares for a kindle cover
I think your idea of a little hanky is great! I would do that.
My fave patterns from your book is the turtle which I've made and love and the gnome dolls which I want to make in the near future!!!
I can just imagine the fabric squares being stolen by my children so I think I would applique them on to a bag for them to use, that way we might all get to enjoy them!
I love to make animals. :)
My favourite type of stuffies to make are simple teddy bears. So cute!

I love making dolls! Especially since I love making the doll clothes
I like both dolls and softies equally, just depends on my mood!
Looks like a great book! I love making toys for my kids- that's how I started sewing years ago.
I used to make dolls but being that my daughter never got into them I moved on onto dressable stuffies. My latest was Maggie rabbit :) A bit less work than dolls and a whole lot more love from the kids!
I love making bunnies and doll clothes
Thanks! I've made a doll for my daughter and would love to make some more!
tigger!
Good old teddies are always a winner although one of my grand children currently has a fascination with foxes- a bit more of a challenge to sew.
Your book looks lovely. I really enjoy making things for my children, and for friends when they have babies - nothing beats a handmade gift.
your book looks so cute, would love to make something for my 3 girls, but I havent made toys before
I love making little plush whales for the littles in my life. Puzzle balls are also fun!
I think the doll would be great to make for my granddaughter. Thanks for the great giveaway.
I love making dinosaurs and fish stuffies
I think a cute eclectic set of wall art would be a wonderful way to use the little panels! Being daring and stepping out of colour comfort zones is always an interesting challenge!
I like to make soft dolls
I would love to make some soft dolls they just look so darn cute.
I've never made a doll, just a teddy bear or two. But it would be fun to try! I like adding new skills to my set.
I'd like to make soft dolls. Used to, but that was long time ago! Thanks for the giveaway

I would like to make more dolls or monsters. I heard good things about your book from Abby Glassenburg (berg?).
I like the doll with dk brown hair and pointed hat sitting on the dock in the picture so I would make her, and I also like the doll with the long legs and cape - as well as the cute little bears in blue and white print. So pretty. The limited edition prints would be framed between glass and hung in my grandchildrens' room - I am lucky enough to have a room that is just for them with all their toys and bunk beds etc. All the tools look great too - what a giveaway - thanks for the chance to win it.

i would use the squares for a baby quilt. need to make 2 quilts this summer for arriving babies.
The only softies I've made have been knitted. That said, I have a book out of the library which has some nice easy ones (animals) including some that are rattles, and I think that I am going to try either the whale toy or the monkey rattle.

I'd love to use the fabric squares for a baby blanket for a special baby on it's way.
I have made quite a few dolls - Raggedy Anns or Andys for my kids, nieces and nephews - and some other more modern type stuffy dolls. They are fun and they always have personality.
I really like those mice you present on your book title, they're a cute gift. Thanks for the chance to win this wonderful kit!
My good friend's little man has been in the hospital most of his life with an incredibly rare genetic disease. It is not even a named disease yet and so they have to answers and everything is trial and error. It has been rough for them, and their motto has always been "slow and steady" with the image/picture of a turtle! When my youngest was born he was 5 weeks early and stayed in nicu for 2 weeks and they came by with a stuffed turtle telling us about their mantra and how it has kept them going for the long haul. I would hopefully be able to turn this around and find something awesome to make their little with this turtle fabric square! Thank you for this generous giveaway!
I think the first thing would have to be the doll/gnome, with cape! I have plans for a cat, out of recycled cord trousers. Thanks for the chance of fabric, and all these handy dandy tools!
The mice! too cute!
