Old McDonald Farm Set and Soft Book

The barn and animals are from a site that has closed.
The animals were meant to be "stuffies" but I placed a water bottle cap in the bottom of each before sewing them shut and now they stand up. Old Farmer McDonald and his wife are sunbonnet stuffies from Embroidery Library which were too thin to do the bottle cap trick to, so, I glued on tabs to make them stand.
Most of the pages of the book are from Embroidery Library, with other designs from all over to make a nice size book. The back page is from Ms. V's Amazing Embroidery Designs.
Thanks for looking.

Sorry to hear that these are no longer available but my mind is spinning. I guess you could use many of the animal designs in our libraryies and flip them so that you could sew them together to make a double sided animal to be sewn together and stuffed with bottle cap added. I plan to make a book from DesignsbySick but love the animals to go along with it. Thanks for your great idea.

You're welcome! These animals have plain fabric backs... faster that way... since was very time consuming project. Welcome to Cute, by the way! Glad you've joined us!
