***See the winner of the Shwin Designs pattern giveaway here!***
I made Charlotte a pretty flippin’ cute penguin pillow the other day…and I think it’s safe to say she’s in love….you’ll see. ๐ I used this lovely pattern from my sponsor, Gingercake Patterns and Design.
The flannel I got from Joann’s-they had it on sale a few weeks back for $2 a yard-love that kind of a deal! Sadie called dibs when she saw me sewing it up, and when I told her it was for Charlotte she didn’t like that. Seeing as her bed is full of mommy-made softies, I think Miss C deserves one of her own! (Speaking of Sadie’s bed, I finally finished her quilt! pics to come soon!)
I think she agrees! She loved pointing out the penguin’s nose! (You can kinda see where her scar is going to be too…darn)
The pattern was very well written and a quick sew-I think I had it finished in less than 2 hours, start to finish. I love how the darts add shape to the head and cute little bottom, too!
how cute.xx

Keep putting merderma on that scar. It will fade. (You have to do it 3 times a day for a good long while though, like 60 or 90 days?) She is still cute as a button though!
Holy smokes, that is one ca-ute little gal. Can’t wait to see you guys next month!
Ps. This is Joanna, in case you couldn’t tell by the “ca-ute”
Hi, you have to honor the days of the craftsman here in Brazil! Go on! Congratulations!
Such a cute little penguin and Charlotte. ๐ My daughter cut her head open really bad a year and a half ago. I just kept putting mederma on it twice a day and you can hardly even see the scar anymore. I was so worried about it. It’s quite big and right in between her eyes. Mederma works wonders!

Too totally cute! Both the penguin and Miss C, who will probably not have a noticeable scar, she’s young!

Your girls are the most adorable and Charlotte’s cheeks make me smile, especially the last photo on this post….I’ve shared it with so many people….that is pure happiness on her face!!! Anyhoo…just wanted to let you know that you have inspired me to make a penguin pillow, even though I haven’t sewn anything from a pattern in 30 years!!!! If you’d like to see it, my blog post is
