More Tag Toys

I wasn't going to post about these little guys yet because well, my sister will likely be receiving one or two of them at her baby shower in a couple weeks, but every time I save something to post I always forget.  I'm pretty sure she knows she getting some anyway so it's not like I'm really ruining the surprise.... right?

Anyway I sewed up a bunch more tag toys.  They come together pretty quick once all the ribbons are cut and pinned so I just did that part in front of a movie one evening and then sewed them all together the next morning.  I have a feeling this will be my new go to present for baby showers.  Ara still loves the two I made her and I know that the better she gets with her hands the more she'll like them.

I'm thinking that if I ever make one for a baby I already know the name of I might just monogram it as well.  Give it a bit more texture and something more to look at.



I also just want to say a huge THANK YOU to all you folk who left me such amazing comments on my label tutorial.  I hope you all get good use out of it and I definitely want to see your tags when you're done making them, so send me an email if you blog about it or just send me a pic!
