Some days you just don't feel like doing anything complicated - you just want to sit back and enjoy. So here is a selection of simple softies and rag dolls to satisfy the need for speed and simplicity.
This little smiley face plushie from Chez Beeper Bebe is easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Keep your socks on or take them off and make this cute sock owl softie from Whimsy Loft.
Make this patchwork Scottie dog pattern and use up some scraps.
Hip to be squared - this little robot softie from Sew Green is sew cute (excuse the pun, couldn't help myself).
Make this simple cloth doll clown pouch (you need to click on the link further down on the page to get the instructions).
These little piggies are too cute.
This little pink girlie and her Scottie dog (not sure why the sudden Scottie dog influx) are printed out onto printer ready fabric and sewn up. Couldn't be easier.
Also from the Fantastic Toys blog is this little fabric cupcake tutorial. Awwww....adorable cupcakes with eyes.
This next video is a discovery of mine on You Tube of a little girl named Olivia (or Oli) who frankly is a better TV presenter than most adults. Check out her doll making video part 1 where she makes a simple but fantastic rag doll:
And here Oli finishes off her little rag doll:
Remember K.I.S.S - Keep it Simple Sweetheart!
