Dinosaur taggie toys


I found this cute dinosaur taggie toy pattern from Bubbles and Bobbins found here and as there have been a few baby boys born in my neck of the woods recently, I had some fun running up four of them this week in production line fashion (I ran out or stuffing so the fourth is yet to be completed).

It's always satisfying having all the materials you want at had. The stripy ribbon was wrapped around the pyjamas, the boys got for Christmas and the fabric is from a vintage duvet cover. I added a bell inside for noise value and followed the advice of Grandmother; toy making success is found in the quality of the stuffing and the features, so stuff it well and make sure the features are friendly.
