I've had a few moments to play with my new sewing machine lately and finally finished a "Skunk Ape" softie my eldest son has been asking me to make for a couple of years!  

If you don't know what a Skunk Ape is, click here - basically it's a strange creature that my cryptozoology obsessed son loves (personally it just looks like a bad photo of a monkey if you ask me).  

I've also had some fun designing a simple Bear Softie using some recycled fabrics I had stored away...
