with all the toy recalls this year, I am thinking handmade toys will be big this year. If anyone else is interested to keep this thread going, please post all the toy pics and links here so they are all in one spot.
I will start with this adorable free stuffed penquin pattern

Remember to remove all pins from hand made toys. Some people opt to hand baste intead of pins on toys, or to use binder clips or large paper clips, especially when using faux fur or other bulky fabrics where the tiny pins may be easily "lost" in the fabric. Also, stay away from buttons and other small detatchable trims for small children.
