Hello Cuties! Gus' first birthday will be a fishing theme. I thought my daughter could use this for something.<br /><br />
This pattern was for a drawstring laundry bag. However, my daughter wanted it made into a backpack for his things.<br /><br />
The eyes were suppose to be of felt, but I embroidered a white 2 inch filled circle, with a black 1 inch circle.<br /><br />
I also added tabs, so I could attach the drawstring, for a back pack, instead of the draw only at the top. Of course I had to lengthen my strings.<br /><br />
I hope you like Gus' first fish!-Toogie

So far Gus is a 'happy camper', just gets upset when you can't get his food fast enough....but then that may just be being a male!-lol
