i have a sewing machine that mark's grandmother clara gave me.

the notion to use it to try to make stuffed animals came about when shopping for frances' baby shower. she likes organic things and i couldn't find any stuffed animals made out of appropriate materials. i still couldn't get my hands on organic fabric, but except for the eyes, the animals are all cotton and (theoretically) washable.

it wasn't a disaster, so i made more.
