Ever since I bought more of the vintage blanket fabric, I have wanted to design my own lamb toy rather than adapt someone else's pattern. Admittedly, designing a toy for me is more like drawing the animal from a side view then cutting out the shape and adding a couple of gussets!
I'm quite happy with how this little chap has turned out though - everything seemed to fit together nicely and once he was stuffed, the shapes were what I was after.
He has a smart green bow with a rusty looking bell too! If you are interested, he's for sale in my Etsy shop now.
Suffering from a strained shoulder at the moment which makes everything to do with my right arm very painful - I do hope it doesn't affect my knitting. Silly thing is, I have no idea how I did it so don't know how to alleviate it!

Well done ref the lamb. There are times vintage fabric is not easy to sew. I think you made a really good job.
Beautiful egg, kids at time have no taste :-)
Get well soon, hope the aches and strains go away. Is it age related :-) :-) :-) xxxxxxxxxxxxx
he, he, he, XXX
