This pattern can be found in a book called "Omiyage- Handmade Gifts from Fabric in the Japanese Tradition" by Kumiko Sudo - and it is in English.
These look great. Were you able to get the directions in English & how if you did.
sorry, I am French, and my english is not very well.
a cutie could translate for you? or use an online translator
Thanks but I'm not sure how to use a translator. One sight I know of has a button to click on to translate it but I couldn't find one on this site.
Thay are beautiful, are they made in the hoop?
thanks, no they are not in the hoop, everything is made in the machine to be sewed
I still remember the first time I saw one, or should I say hundreds, of these LIVE creatures .... many many many many etc... years ago. I think these are much prettier. Thanks for posting.

Very nice, I would love to get the pattern; where does it come from?
Very good idea! I'll make a mental note on my ever increasing "to-do"...
