Notes

October 11 Finished the body and sewed on (well, asked my mom to sew on) two large black beads as eyes. Tortue is cute, but he’s impatient for his legs and shell.

October 18 Wow, time is just flying by! I really need to work on this. I only have one and a half legs finished.

October 22 Finished with all four legs and have started shell. Fun!

October 27 Almost done. I just have to finish the shell attachment panel and I’m finished!

October 28 Finally done with the knitting! I just have to finish up the seaming…

November 3 Finished with the seaming! Lori is going to love it!
