Lily sugar 'n' cream cotton yarn, 9mm safety eyes, size f crochet hook, fiberfill, yarn needle, stitch marker, craft felt.

What was your inspiration?

My children inspire me. When I see the toy I created, It just screams my daughter's name. Her personality is captured in every stitch.

What are you most proud of?

I am most proud of the expressive face, and I am most proud of the lovely color sequence. I spent an entire day surrounded by balls of cotton yarn just making swatches until I finally got the right combination.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Have fun! This is a fun easy project to use up some stash yarn.
