Description
With this book in the Kids Can Do It series, kids can turn old gloves, odd socks and scrap fabric into adorable stuffed animals! Just start by tracing one of the simple-to-follow patterns included in the book. Then hand-sew the fabric and fill the toy with beans or stuffing -- it's that easy! Following step-by-step illustrated instructions, kids can create 12 different one-of-a-kind stuffed-animal friends. Beanbag buddies make great gifts -- if kids can bear to give them away!
