Description

Oops, I almost forgot to post this one! Anyway, I’m a bridesmaid for a friend who’s moving to Australia (where her fiance is from/lives) after the wedding, so we took that as the theme for her shower. This was part of the decorations/bridesmaid gift (we stuffed money in the pouch.) The name is in honor of the late TV series Firefly, since we watched through the entire thing while the bride, another bridesmaid, and I added lots and lots of beads to her dress. (Kaylee is one of the main characters.) Anyway, it was a hit at the shower, and I’m glad of that. Self-drafted pattern.

Material Notes

fleece, buttons, bamboo stuffing, beans (no, really, they helped me to weigh the bottom/tail down for balance!), embroidery floss

Difficulty

Novice

    shes adorable really, it could have maybe used a tadbit more stuffing around the knees but otherwise you did a spectacular job. I loved stuffed animals, if you wanna share the pattern that would rock too!!!!!!!!!!
