Awww, it's so cute!

Thanks! It was quite tricky because I used cotton. The eyes are embroidered.

How'd you get the embroidery so smooth?!

If you look closely you'll see some "fuzz" around the eye. What I did was embroider the eye separately on a piece of brown fabric, cut it out, and sewed it to the head. It's been so long I had to look at it a minute to remember how I did it. That's actually the only embroidery I've ever done.

That's a really neat technique.

It's adorable, and the eyes are really neat.

Those look very cool! How is that texture achieved. Front post dc's?

Yes, you do a dc in front of your work and anchor it in a loop a couple of stitches down. At least I think that's what you said, lol!

Thanks! I might make another. If I do I'll do a write-up on it.

My DH has the top one on his bed right now and I've been working on one in yellow and orange for my GirlChild. I just love this pattern. Thank you for the instructions, I needed the counts!

Gorgeous, love these colors!!
