Sew and Play: Enchanted Forest Toys, Paperback

We all have that one toy we loved as a child. Mine was a doll called a Munchichi. I took her everywhere. I loved her nose off...and then I lost her when my family moved to a new house. I get requests all the time to repair a beloved stuff animal or doll so that the child of the child who loved that doll to death, can love it again. What is it that makes such a powerful bond between a child and a beloved toy? How much more powerful would it be if you made with your own hands that beloved toy?

A recommended suppliers list and a list of video tutorials and other resources is also included.
