The first one is finished! Stitching the two sides together was actually much easier than I anticipated. The part I found intriguing was just how much stuffing it takes — it was endless and seemed like I put enough stuffing in it for something twice its size. They’re fun to put together and the number of patterns for them is incredible.
And the back. No matter what angle I look at this, though, I see quilt blocks.

I’m working on a surprise gift for a friend on a rather tight deadline and, as I know she reads my blog, I can’t post about it. So the next couple of days will probably include photos from past projects.

Great finishes! Smudges upside down post has me a little twisted.
