Some Friends

Meet some new friends of mine.  That's Freda on the far left, then Gordon who is resting beside Penelope, (the one with all the hair) and lastly Ted.  I made these little friends a couple days ago.  I really only meant to make Freda, but once I started making her I realized she couldn't be alone so I made Gordon, Penelope, and Ted as well.  Too bad I plan to eventually send them off to all different homes.  I hope they won't miss each other too much.  Freda will be staying here with us, under the watchful care of Ara.  Ara loves Freda despite all the time she spends chewing on her.  I hope Freda doesn't mind too much.

You can make your own little friends if you'd like.  It's real simple and there's a pattern in Lotta Jansdotter's book  Simple Sewing For Baby 
The next time I make some of these little dudes I'm thinking about putting a little rattle heart inside, or maybe some real crinkly innards.
