A little bit of sewing for a brand new little boy has been going on this weekend. I'm attempting Fiona's gorgeous clothtopus from this book (it's just the most delightful book, I promise). He's just about finished - just a little bit of closure sewing and some embroidery and my eight tentacled friend will be done. Miss 4 has affectionately named him "Sammy" and I've been trying to break the news to her all weekend that he's not going to be staying at our place for long.
I'm also seriously considering having a crack at joining in with Kids Clothes Week Challenge over at Elsie Marley. I've always been a bit scared to do it before, but I'm feeling pretty keen for the challenge this time round. I don't think I'll be able to get much done, but just one item and I'd be happy! What do you think? Are you joining?

I have fiona's book too. I have made heaps of the toys...but not clothtopus. Yours is looking great! Would love to see your version of the Japanese dress if you end up making it!:)
