Going Batty

~ Pamela Klingensmith
This girl.  Love her so much.
We have an extra close granddaughter/grandma bond.
That said, our taste in “stuffies” is night and day.
Her plush animal collection includes dragons, chickens, and viruses.
Yes, viruses!!!
Mine would include bears, puppies, and butterflies.
So when she found a pattern on Etsy and asked me to help her sew it
– of course I said yes –
and of course I wasn’t surprised that it was a pattern for a stuffed bat.

Okay, I admit, it’s pretty cute.

She picked out the fabrics.
The head is stuffed with polyester stuffing.
The body is stuffed with polyester stuffing and Polypellets.
The eyes are plastic safety eyes.
The bat’s name is Nebula.
My granddaughter LOVES her little bat.
Treasure the sewing journey with your little ones, my friends.
Happy Sewing!

Sewing is my passion and I always have a notion to sew, but sometimes I get distracted with other crafty endeavors. I share my creative accomplishments (and sometimes failures) here on my blog. I am a licensed Martha Pullen beginning sewing instructor and serger instructor. For 5 years, I taught new owners how to use their Bernina sewing machines at my local Bernina dealer, and for 2 years I taught serger project classes at my local Baby Lock dealer. These days, my professional time is spent retailing handmade purse and bag making supplies and patterns. I also sell a small selection of fabric as well as my handmade bags and purses.
