Turtles

Meet Poodie, the turtle my mom made for me when I was a little girl. When I tried to say "turtle" it came out "poodie" and that's where she got her name. Poodie happily resides on the bookshelf by my desk.

Now meet Tilly the Tortoise, another great pattern from Funky Friends Factory. She is finished in time for Gracie's first Christmas.

She has a twin, since I had enough fabric for two and I wasn't sure which version would be cuter. It turns out they're both very cute.
