[Nfb-krafters-korner] Washcloth crafts

[NCBootman]

What I'm hearing is that people already know how to make the bunny. I keep 
hearing that people want to do a bird. Well, the only "bird" thing I find in 
Google is a bird of Paradise folded napkin which is a flower I believe. I 
will have to hunt for more items before agreeing to teach a class. If 
someone hasn't made the bunny and wants to, a class is doable or I can post 
the instructions. But, that seems to violate a rule of not allowing class 
type material to be distributed to all. So, I'm not sure how to proceed.

Susan,

More information, please. Wash cloths animals, cut  and stuffed and
sewed...please share her idea of how. I have made a Boo boo  bunny and have
seen birthday cake, do not know how to make it, but babies  coming and need
all new ideas, this sounds wonderful, if you can share the  idea.

My sister makes the cutest washcloth animals that are cut, sown  and stuffed
for babies.
