Meet Patchie – the soft toy formerly known as Pickle.
8 year old Clare sewed Patchie all by herself, with just the occasional piece of advice from me (and I put the eyes in for her). Jodie‘s instructions were excellent (and very entertaining), and Clare is extremely pleased with her new toy.
This is a terrific beginner’s project – look at what a great result you can achieve, even if you’re only 8 years old! Patchie accompanied Clare to church this morning where she was proudly displayed to anyone who would listen (and a whole lot of other people as well). Thanks Jodie for such a great pattern and well done to Clare from a very proud mother!

All the credit goes to Clare. Patchy is gorgeous. As a mother whose craft gene completely bypassed her daughter , you must be thrilled that Clare is so crafty Lara.
Wow – she did a great job!
Yay for Patchie and for Clare and for YOU, for passing on the baton.
