A woodland duo

A grandmother and aunt came to me 

looking for two toys that would fit a woodland theme!

They also had to fit in with the nursery colour scheme...

I think they came out beautifully!

Seen here with their 4 week old forever friend!

I am sure he will love having two friends who will stick by him through all his childhood! ☺

Such a sweetie!

I really DO enjoy working with customers to create a toy that they want!

Here is a colour scheme I wouldn't have thought of, but I think it looks great!

A fun order!

Most people only order one or two items at a time, 

so it was very exciting to get a rather large order just recently.

I am thankful it was not a rush job, because it did take a while, 

but it was fun doing such a range of items!

Variety in an order makes it very satisfying for me ☺

Colourific!

I had wondered why my customers only ever ordered animals in "normal" colours.

So I thought I would experiment....

Nine different colours...

But the photos just don't do this bunny justice!!!! Ever so much better "in the flesh" ☺

What do YOU think?

Precious Spots!

I was itching to make up this pattern, and thankful to have a customer order it! It would be wonderful to make it again - every time it comes out just a little different, and it is SO fun to see them!

The hat, in my opinion, is what makes her "oh so cute"!

Adorable, huh?

From top to toe, she would be a fantastic gift - would you like one ordered? ☺

Love at first sight!

A beloved birthday present!

Hippo and her friend! I love these pictures! 

(If you have a picture of one of my knitted toys with their new friend, please do send me a copy!)

Love from Australia!

Lorraine Pistorio is a VERY clever lady!!!

So many times people overseas can't represent Australian animals correctly, but this is excellent!

Now kangaroos do NOT hop down the street with a huge red heart in their pouch 

...but... 

this is an exception ☺

It isn't always this green in Australia where the kangaroos live, but no doubt this one is ecstatic with all that delicious greenery! 

Yes, the heart comes out ☺

Overall Twins

They really could not be twins, but with identical overalls they became twins =)

I hope they always stick together and give LOTS of love in their new "forever home"!

Pretty Pink Pig

Another new toy at Betsy's Boutique! 

She is big and cuddly, and can you see that tail??? =)

And did you like the way those ears curl over?

Now this looks like a great toy - but I also have had a few people say that it would be great as a door stop - what do you think???

Lots of Lamb

Another new toy!!!

Rather chunky - with arms outstretched - great for cuddles - ideal for kids!

All limbs are knitted in place, not moveable...

Although not designed to wear overalls, I am sure that overalls could be made to suit =)

Baby Bear!

December was quiet, so I had time to make up a few of the patterns I had not completed before then!

One of those completed was Baby Bear.... Quite the cutie I think!

This bear would be a perfect gift for a little girl...

But another colour overall could easily be made...

Like this! 😊

---------------------------------

Or Bear could be unclothed - some people like them just the way you find them in the wild.....

Be sure to contact me with your order!

Monkey mania...

My orders come for all different occasions, and that makes it more interesting for me, as I work with my customer to create...

the perfect gift!

In mid-2016 I was contacted by a very excited grandma to be, who was looking for a present that was different to the ones you can easily pick up in your average shopping centre..

So what do you think about this?

For a present that will last a childhood =)

 

Aren't those fingers and toes gorgeous?

And look at that LONG tail!

Looks like he is about to jump up and swing through the trees ;)

Now, before you contact me and try to order your very own monkey....

This monkey caused me a bit of hair-pulling and even a few tears, so I won't be taking orders for this monkey for a while longer....
