Crocodiles ~ DIY ~ Free Pattern

I am hearing so much about the new season of "Shark Week," but for me it is Crocodile Time ~ Tick Tock Crock to be exact!
This pattern is free from Sew4Home ~ one of my favorite blogs.  I have to admit that I started the softies back in March, then put them aside, and recently pulled them out to finish.


While the pattern was extremely easy to follow, the plush fabric did require some adjusting (and more than a few uses of the seam ripper)!!

After asking my granddaughter their favorite colors, I selected aqua and lime green minky fabrics.  (Reminder to self ~ always use the same color for both girls!)





Stitching from the back...


...and from the front...

 
button eyes added...


 
...and then the stuffing (got to catch up on a few television show while doing this!)


...and my crocks were finished...


The process did take some time, but the results were well worth it.

Enjoy!  ♥
