Those ones that you linked to are so much bigger (like a real stuffed animal) and would take me at least a week to make...maybe longer. </p> <p>Also there are lots of free patterns online through Lion Brand Yarns' website and Red Heart Yarns' website:</p> <p><a href="http://www.redheart.com/finder/pattern?filters=tid:2120&#038;retain-filters=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.redheart.com/finder/pattern?filters=tid:2120&#038;retain-filters=1</a></p> <p><a href="http://cache.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/patternFinder.fcgi?search=Search&#038;iP=1&#038;searchText=&#038;craft=0&#038;edition=&#038;subcategory=24&#038;categoryKey=&#038;size=&#038;componentCategoryKey=Any&#038;yarnClass=Any&#038;I4.x=16&#038;I4.y=15&#038;I4=Search" rel="nofollow">http://cache.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/patternFinder.fcgi?search=Search&#038;iP=1&#038;searchText=&#038;craft=0&#038;edition=&#038;subcategory=24&#038;categoryKey=&#038;size=&#038;componentCategoryKey=Any&#038;yarnClass=Any&#038;I4.x=16&#038;I4.y=15&#038;I4=Search</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171873 Tue, 29 May 2012 10:15:55 +0000 Mrs. Pen 171873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pipers Mommy: I think we often forget that the nursery is for a child, not us! So i wanted him to have a lot of visual interest and lots of animals for interaction and imaginative play. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171867 Tue, 29 May 2012 10:13:51 +0000 Pipers Mommy 171867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: Love it! I wish I was talented enough to do more DIY on my own. Love the brightness of the colors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171853 Tue, 29 May 2012 10:09:37 +0000 Mrs. Pen 171853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pipers Mommy: So very cute!!! love it.<br /> I will be making my LO's bedding.

People know that yarn is expensive and crocheting takes time. They are so freakin cute!!</p> <p>@Pipers Mommy: oh really?! What colors are her nursery? I'm still putting LO's together, he is only 3 months old so I never really finished it, which is what I wanted. I wanted to wait and see what our needs are. We're doing lots of colors, navy, green, blue, brown, yellow, grey and white. I have found a few fabrics that tie all the colors together beautifully.</p> <p>@Zuzu2and11: yeah, my grandma taught me too - I just don't have the patience to crochet!! Maybe when I'm retired like grandma, I'll have so much time I'll pick it up lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171789 Tue, 29 May 2012 09:32:04 +0000 sandy 171789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: thank you :)! I had dreams of doing that as a SAHM but it's not very cost efficient. It definitely takes me more than an 2-3 hours to make them and I don't think anyone would pay more than $10-$20 for one of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171730 Tue, 29 May 2012 08:49:22 +0000 littlebug 171730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG those are soooo cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171729 Tue, 29 May 2012 08:49:16 +0000 mrs. wagon 171729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>too adorable!!!</p> <p>@sandy: omg you should totally make these and sell them on etsy!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171725 Tue, 29 May 2012 08:47:51 +0000 sandy 171725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a book and made some of these crocheted toys for LO.

My mom taught me how to crochet when I was little, but I just started again during my pregnancy. Saving this idea for LO!

Want me to ask her?</p> <p>I know that 10-15ish years ago she worked in a shop where she sold all her homemade dolls and accessories (she is wonder woman - she does everything! quilting, sewing etc)</p> <p>My aunts (her daughters) have tried talking her into opening an etsy shop but I think it's the technology part of an online shop that scares her. She tried facebook and couldn't figure it out lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/eek-my-grandma-said-shell-make-these-for-lo#post-171540 Mon, 28 May 2012 23:41:14 +0000 MaisyMay 171540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Super Cute!
