Too Cute Turtles

I've been pretty laid back lately. 

No to-do lists, no rushing, no schedules, no staying up late or waking up early, no deadlines... just kind of whatever, whenever attitude.  With all this time on my hands I've been making a few things for me for once.

This was one of those projects you start not realizing how much work is ahead.  You make it about half way through and decide maybe it is too much work and you might quit.  Then you think about it and figure you have already invested so much time and effort into it that you might as well finish. 

I finished. 

Meet Mama Mia...

She lays eggs....

...and has has two incredibly cute babies named "Walnut" and "Almond"...

A lot of work for me but too cute!

I got the pattern from this book.

My boys have fun shoving everything inside the mama then pulling it all out.  It entertains them for a little bit.  But, they are boys, they get bored then move onto destroying the house.
