Thank you to Linda for letting me know about some easy to make softies on her website, Pane Amore Creativita.

The tutorials are in Italian but you can transalate them into English using one of the translation buttons on her website. Also, these projects are quite easy to follow without the transalation and can be purely hand-sewn.
