Back from holidays and ready for a great year of softie goodness here on softiemaking.com!

Here’s a fantastic free pattern for a Tag Monster for little hands (and teeth!) that like to pull on colourful ribbons and tags:

This one is very easy to put together but make sure you put aside time to sew on all those ribbons!

Not-so-scary Monsters by Fern of CraftBlog

Thanks to Fern for alerting me to her fantastic free tutorial and pattern for some very cute and not-so-scary monsters on a new-ish collaborative Aussie blog - CraftBlog:

In Fern’s words: “They’re entirely hand sewn and the fun fur is very forgiving, so they make a great project for beginners or for the young sewer. Make them in a variety of colours and spread them around the house for some fluffy Halloween decorations, put a bell or a rattle in them and they become great toys for toddlers . . .”

I like the idea of making lots of fluffy monsters in different colours and spreading them around the home for Halloween. These would also make really adorable giveaways for kids’ birthday parties too - just attach a personalised tag with the child’s name to the monster.

The pattern is downloadable in pdf format and the instructions are very easy to follow.
