Soft Baby Doll

Look at this sweet little soft baby doll!

I made it from a Jill Hamor pattern from her book Storybook Toys- which I really recommend if you like to sew toys or dolls. It has gorgeous projects that would make great gifts. I followed the directions and my soft baby doll turned out absolutely fabulous! The doll has a polar bear hood which can turn around, so you can just show one side of the baby's head at a time. Embroidered on one side is an awake baby face, and on the other side is a sleeping baby face. If you don't feel inclined to spend many hours sewing your own, you can purchase this one in my Etsy shop.

Girls Pink and White Cupcake Purse

Girl's Pink and White Cupcake Purse with Free Beanie Baby Plush Chick in Egg. This adorably cute little girl's pink and white cupcake purse comes with a free beanie baby named "Eggbert." This little girl's hand-sewn purse is about 5.5 inches tall by 6 inches wide. It's the perfect size for toting around small stuffed animals, such as this sweet little chicken still in its egg. The hand-sewn purse features many fun fabrics. The main outer purse fabric has cheery cupcakes in pink, blue, green, purple and yellow. The pleats on the pouch are a white fabric with white leafy print. The handles are white with pink and green stripes. The interior lining is white with pink and brown sprinkles, like the "jimmies" on a cupcake. There is a layer of batting inside this soft purse, which allows the purse to carry more weight and easily hold its shape. A final fun detail are the little pink balls hanging down from the top of the purse. They add an adorable element along with movement when a little girl carries this purse around. Bonus: Yes, this does come with the Beanie Baby! Yahoo! Confession time: back in the '90s we were a little obsessed with Beanie Babies, so these cuties were carefully stored as collector items and kept in mint condition. Now we are ready to part with a few of these and they are eager to make the conversion from collector's item to child's toy. I decided to help them find new homes by including them free with little purses and sleeping bags that I designed to be used with stuffed animals. Beanie Description: Eggbert is an (almost) newly hatched little yellow chick. He is still inside his fabric white shell. He has sweet little safety eyes and a cute little orange beak. He is in new condition, complete with mint hangtags.
