Earlier this year I made this softie lion for the Softies for Mirabel charity auction. At the time I promised my son that I would make one for him too. He has been nagging me ever since. So yesterday I finally got around to making a lion for him. Of course, to prevent any further fights I had to make one for my daughter as well.
H chose the fabric for his lion (black is his favourite colour at the moment) and C's lion is made from fabric we bought in Japan last year. As you can see, they love them.
For lots of softie inspiration, ideas, tips and tutorials check out the great blog, Softie Making.
You're kids are adorable!!!

Yeah, we like 'em. Be nice if they slept a bit more though.
