Oh, how cute - and I have the perfect material for the backing on one of these. LOL - I just found some soft flannel with elephants on it in my stash. But - no little ones to stich for now.
I too do not have any little one to sew for but I just make them for me because I enjoy doing it. I was lucky when my best friend told me that she had a grand child on the way and it happened to be a little boy. Seeing I made one for each of his sisters I could not leave him out. So not only did I enjoy doing it, I was able to give it to some one who will like it.
