Five Kilos of stuffing
August 12, 2009
Right now there’s five kilos of snowy white toy stuffing under my dining room table. My hubby has been dutifully weighing the stuffing and putting it into individual bags for the softie kits. On Monday night he finished off 50 little bags for the baby owl kits. There’s no easy way to say this so I’ll just come out and say it. Our house looks like a drug den. Perhaps crack house is the correct term. Oh the things we do for love.
.
So on the fifth day of stitches I was preparing… Five kilos of stuffing.

Hello. My name is Claire. I have a sock toy addiction. It began two years ago when I was pregnant and nesting. At first I dismissed it. I hadn't sewn in years. "Craft Schmaft" I said. Well it seems this crafty thing is here to stay. This blog brings you the delights of making sock softies, fabric finds and crafty inspiration from round the interweb.

Hi Leslie,
I’ve tried emailing you but to no avail. I will have an online store up at the beginning of September so you’ll be able to buy an owl pattern all the way from Florida !
cheers
Claire
