I saw this fabric hopscotch online here: http://melissagoodsell.typepad.com/day_to_day/2009/06/fabric-hopscotch.html There were no instructions or anything so I had to figure it out on my own. I wasn't trying to copy this one exactly but I guess it worked out that way due to the available felt at the craft store I was at. I did add some of my own little elements - like the bean bag and pocket, the personalization, and the buttons and ribbon closure. I made it for my niece Jercie for Christmas from Kaden - hopefully she won't see it on here before then. It turned out way cuter than I imagined it would. It was kind of a pain to sew the number squares onto the fabric but it wasn't too hard to make at all and it didn't take that long to put the whole thing together.

This is so so so cute! I think my girls would absolutely LOVE this. I don't think I am patient or talented enough to make them one unfortuneately.... (sigh) Oh, to be as talented as you. ;)
ReplyDeleteI was trying to look at the pictures on Facebook last night and she kept walking in on me. I finally had to tell her to go away so I could look. I will do my best to keep her from seeing it. :)
ReplyDeletethis is so cute. Could you possibly give the measurements of the entire thing and of the squares? Is there any batting inside? And did you just free cut out the numbers or did you use a pattern from somewhere? THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!! :) cheyennealexander@hotmail.com
