It is time to replace my comfort quilt, the one I made back in 2008. It was my first ever quilt, and so far I've only made two quilts so I am not very experienced in this craft. This will be my third quilt ever, and I'm super excited about it. I love sewing and

This weekend i finished the first attempt. All in all it went quite well and straight forward, but i made two mistakes.
First, i need to be more careful of my thread tension, the first few seams weren´t that nice, but they work so it is fine.
Second, i did cut the elastic for the leg openings (is that the correct term?) too short. I first calculated with minus 15%, but thought that is too much. Yeah, it wasn´t.

Since sunny.garden is all about creation, I do want to retrieve the little projects I made across the years.
This is a little plushie I made myself quite some years ago now, I also added a sketch to show what's based on, and how I kind of missed the mark haha (plushie ended up looking like a fish thing of sorts).
I don't sew anymore because it's very time consuming and I have poor management, but it feels very very nice to have little hand-sewn plushies I made myself.
Also, while I did make patterns myself for some stuff, this specifically was based on a freely available pattern of a kitty bean plus!

Materials: felt, thread, patience and a couple buttons, nothing fancy!
