Toy deer

I think deer are my new favorite animal. I've been looking for a cute deer pattern for a while and I found this free download online...somewhere, sorry, I will add a link later. I think my version isn't as cute as the pattern made it seem, but I think it's cute enough. We had fun posing it in funny ways. :)

Rainbow Giraffe Journal

I made another journal with the "rice" stitch on the binding. My only complaint is that when you use card stock and have to sew through the same hole multiple times it makes the binding look sloppy. I wish it was more uniform. I'm not sure if that will ever get better though...after five years of bookbinding I still can't get it to look right(the holes look stretched out). Anyway, I really liked this fabric with giraffes. It would make a really cool baby book, or a book for a giraffe lover.
