I made this as a baby gift for friends of ours. They just had their first baby last weekend. The baby is just as cute as can be. I happened to know that our friend (the new Mommy) was a big fan of Padington Bear. When my mom was here for a visit back in May we went to a quilting store and found this kit. I knew it would be great to make. It was fun to make and went fairly quick. I think I'd like to make more just because they turn out so cute. I sewed it together with flannel in the middle to give it a little more thickness. Then I added a decorative top stitch around the edges because I thought it would make it look nicer. I was happy with the results. It's the first thing I've sewn in quite a while! I'm planning to get started on a baby quilt next.

The Paddington Bear book is so cute! The edinging sets it off nicely. I don't think I've seen any as well done as yours. The baby will love that book!!
