Crochetville Challenge - Toy Drive; GOALS ARE BEING MET!!!

[Mom w/a Motif]

There was a 2 by my name. This is the two I already have. I am still at 2. Will try to do/get some more, though. I think I just said I could mail a couple but didn't want to commit to a certain number. Thanks.

 

Looks good! I will add another to your total.

 

 

 

I couldn't find a goal for you but already had you down for 2. Is this 2 more or are you still at 2. I think we all understand how life gets busy and anything that you are able to donate would be great! Your toys look great! Thanks.

Mom w/a Motif ~ No commitment necessary. Just have fun with it. Thanks so much for any that you can donate. Every bit helps!

Thank you! I will add you to the first post. I can't wait to see what you make!

I have been contacted by some members wondering how they get the free patterns (who to contact/sends out). Here is how it works:

 

1. You make or buy toys.

2. PM KristieMN for her mailing address.

3. Send the toys to KristieMN. (Make sure you put your user name & email address in the box.)

4. When she recieves the toys she will email you the patterns.

 

Good luck to everyone! Let's have fun!

This is my newwst addition to the challenge, it took me loger because I was busy with hubby all day.

 

 

The pattern can be found http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11010154

Ok, here is what I have so far. There are 14 critters and 3 hats so far. I have two more hats I am finishing up to add to the box. I know I will be adding to the box before it get's sent out. I want to add some more Cradle Purses and of course never know what will pop up in the future for testing.

 

I wasn't expecting to put the frog in the background in the box. He already had a home with my youngest (20 yrs old) son, Michael. He had kept it in his room near his computer. He grabbed the frog and said, here you can put this in the box, I asked him why he didn't want it anymore and he said, get this, "It's going to a good cause and can make a little kid smile" I thought it was so sweet. He's my shy quiet one and it's hard to get him to express things like that.

Great job! The toys look great!

 

Navymomx2 ~ Can you tell me where you got the pattern for the frog and butterfly please?

I tested the Frog a while back for Stormy (Diane) I'm not sure which critter you are refering to being a Butterfly, theres a giant Bee that I tested for Chiscrochetcrazy.

 

If it's not the bee can you describe which one and I will look back and let you know.

 

I have another critter being tested so will be adding that to the collection when done.

[Mom w/a Motif]

I got four little turtles done, on the way for our trip. I have been getting a Happy Meal every time we stopped at McDonald's, and will send the toys I collect. Our oldest got one today, and said 'Here, Mom, you can send this, too'. I don't have any way to take a picture here, but just thought I'd post that.....

I was referring to the little one in front of the bee with the yellow head.
