I hung out with this adorable kid and his mom the other day. Dashiell had a really cute fabric toy and it inspired me to make some little fabric toys for Akira's little hands.
Although Aki's not quite ready to pick anything up (and shove it in his mouth) just yet, he will be in no time.
One day, he'll look back at these toys and think "Why did mom make me play with such girlie looking toys?"
The Ball and Cube have crinkly plastic and parchment paper in them
the fabric choices for the ball are lovely, the felt leaves are a really cute addition. this gives me an idea of something to make for the next baby shower i go to.

These are so great. (Not too girly at all.) I think they will be perfect for him when he is ready to play with toys. At one and a half Saya's soft ball is still one of her favorite toys. I have seen lots of good books around recently about making toys for kids, and after reading your post I am starting to think that Saya needs more handmade toys. If only I had more time...
