August Toy Society Drop

Here's my August Toy Society drop. I think he looks a bit like Huntley--the nosey daschund from Curious George. The pattern is Elsie the Little Dog by Kate Henderson of Two Little Banshees. It can be found in the super duper plushie pattern book More Softies that has loads of other adorable plushie patterns by plushie designer superstars like Myra Masuda (My Little Mochi) and Abby Glassenberg (While She Naps). Also, it was a total cinch to make--took me like an hour and a half or something. I did add the big black bulbous felt nose--he just seemed to need it--so he could be as nosey as Huntley. And you probably don't realize it, but we are in hiding right now--doing our very best to seize the remaining days of summer around here--at a cabin in the far reaches of northern Minnesota. So, this toy was dropped on little Ludlow's Island on the beautiful Lake Vermillion. And as always, you can see all my other Toy Society drops here--all part of my year-long Toy Society commitment. Don't already know what the Toy Society is? Well, you should go find about the Toy Society and its handmade plushie mission here.

Also, Bianca, Toy Society mission creator and curator of their blog, has dubbed me an official "friend of the Toy Society" and was so kind as a to put a little write-up on Beeper Bebe on the Toy Society blog--you can read that here.
