A Farewell to Bugs!

a farewell to bugs 2
Don't be sad little ones. It's not you, it's me. I know that we've taught one another a lot, but I think that's just it... I'm not sure we have anymore to teach each other... our time together was lovely, I drew pretty pictures of you, I drooled over adorable fabric to make you from, and spent hours and hours (and I mean HOURS) bringing your pretty faces to life, not to mention all those haircuts... remember the felt covered floors? We watched every episode of Mad Men (more than once) together while I stuffed your bodies with polyfill, and watched you become real. And I did all this lovingly and carefully, but I'm at a stage where my mind is wondering... I'm thinking of pandas again, of little sheepy-lambs and dolls, oh so many dolls... I don't think it's fair to string you along, you deserve better than that.

So goodbye my little bugs! I will keep your sewing pattern, and make it into a PDF so that others can learn from you the way I did, and make their very own little piece of bug happiness, I promise!

B, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
