Please meet Dee Dee….a Melly and Me pattern…..this is what I made for my FIS partner Jen, in our recent Softie Swap..…..this was my first attempt at a softie….had a bit of a problem with the tail, but I think it turned out OK…..I must admit I did have fun making this girl once I knew what I was doing……LOL….
have a fab day…
take care Peg……:>)
Dee Dee is absolutely gorgeous! Can{t tell it’s your first attempt.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great swap gift!
Dee Dee is beautiful,well done for your first attempt at a sooftie.I'm not that good at making them either but I love making cloth dolls :) Barb.
ReplyDeleteOh, cute! Now you you need a grandbaby to make some more for, wink wink
ReplyDeleteWell done Peg, she is one cute dolphin.
ReplyDeleteI think Dee Dee is brilliant!! Your sewing skills are excellent.
ReplyDeleteYou did a brilliant job Peg. She's lovely.
ReplyDeleteShe is a cutie, Peg. I made one for a young friend's baby shower a few weeks back and must admit that I found the pattern a little difficult to understand with regard to setting in the tail - would have been great to have had a little diagram to help out because I thought it was wrong until it came together!
ReplyDeleteIt's darling! I would never have known that was your first one!
ReplyDeleteDee Dee is lovely and quite the poser.... I love the first picture especially............. well done (I haven't made a softee yet!)
ReplyDeleteHi Peg--I love your first softie--Dee Dee--she is soo cute!!!
ReplyDeleteAren't softies fun to make and then of course you have to give them a little "hug"!!!!
Hugs,Di
You did a great job on your first softee Peg, she is lovely!
ReplyDeleteThe trick to making softees is to stuff, stuff, stuff, and when you think you can fit no more stuffing in........do a bit more stuffing!!
Such a cutie is your DeeDee. Love the colours. Yep, definitely a trick in that pattern.
ReplyDeleteWell done on your first attempt.
She's such a sweetie Peg.
ReplyDeleteCUTE! I have a couple of Melly & Me patterns that I need to make up, and this just reminded me about them! Maybe they'll be my OPAM finish for August ;) Thanks for sharing!
