Luella - a lion & friend to help others

Meet Luella Lion!

She loves to twirl, play dress up and sing. Luella also likes to share - she comes with two hair clips, one for her to wear, and one for you! Not only does she share her hair clips with you, but 50% from the sale of Luella goes to Drumm Farm, a home for kids and young adults in the Missouri foster care system. http://drummforkids.org/



Kelly from Kiser Krafts expertly handcrafted Luella Lion from socks, yarn, buttons and other materials. She is a one of a kind toy created just for this fundraiser! Stuffed with recycled materials and fiberfill, and most importantly filled with love, Luella Lion is adorned with two detachable clips handcrafted by Violet's Buds from upcycled materials.

Oh what is in a Lion

Today I want to share with you a few photos showing what goes into one of my Penny Pet Sock Lions. Now I will give you a heads up - the pictures are not the highest quality. I took them at random while working on a lion with my cell phone. So please, forgive me on that.

First, I sew the lion up. Then I take a huge pile of fiberfil and a handful of fabric and yarn remnants.

 I then cut up the left over fabrics and yarn into little bits and pieces. That way they add to the fluffiness of the animal.

Yep all that stuffing will fill out that cute little lion. I push it in and squish it and fill every part of that lion! 


Now this lion is ready for eyes, mouth, nose, and the EPIC mane!!! When I get him finished I'll share photos. What do you think about what goes into a Lion??
