He's amazing! I'd love to make something like that for my little guy's first birthday, if you're thinking of doing a tutorial. I'd happily *pay* for a tutorial!
He is super adorable Jodie, as are all your toy creations. I agree, when are you going to be creating your own special softie book, I would definately buy one. At this very moment (when I get off here) I am sewing up your Jofus mousie.
What a wonderful being! You need to get yourself a book deal, He is simply smashing, Is he fleecy? Is fleece the new felt!! Love the colours. You blow me away.
I'll add my vote to the book deal suggestion. :>} Your attention to detail is what makes your softies so very endearing. His nose! and that sticking up thing on his head, and stripey arms, and the peppermint things on his back. HOW do you come up with these ideas, especially with the holidays over and 239 costumes to make?? Oh, and I love his message pocket. Too cute!
wow. wow. you sew beautiful things. and I totally get the control freak thing. hope the costumes are going well. glad one of my readers sent me here looking for a mouse pattern.
Ok, so I'm going to be honest, I'm not really into soft toys and cute animals, but I appreciate the work and effort that goes into them. This little guy however, made me weak at the knees when I saw him...is that wrong?!!! LOVE HIM!
You're the best, Jodie! You make the cutest and cleverest stuffies - and girl, you just make me smile every time I read your blog. Thanks for making my day!
Hey Jodie... Just dropped by for the first time in ages (I've been awol for a while)... great to see you haven't slowed down at all! Love your work and the robot (and all the labels) is very cool.
OMG !!! He is so cute. Please tell me that you are selling him (Or one just like it),my wee boy is going to be 3 in a few weeks and would so love one of those.
Hi, I am Jodie Carleton. I started this blog in 2007 and somehow a tiny business grew from it. So now when I am not at my regular job I can be found happily making toys in my sewing room or swearing at the computer as I try and write the patterns. I am obsessed with foxes, pinnochio, Red Riding Hood and mechanical toys- actually pretty much any toys.
Say Hi if you have time, feel free to email me with any questions you have, I'm always happy to procrastinate by answering emails.
These tutorials are here for you to have a try. Please feel free to make any number of these items for your own use or gift-giving but please do not make items to sell using these instructions.
