I saw this fuchsia plush and I had to have it.

While I immediately envisioned embellishing a snuggly sweatshirt for my youngest neice with an oversized — muff-style — fuzzy, heart-shaped-pocket (I love the idea of the almost-muff for cozy, winter, nights and as a place for carrying around stuffed animals and other little treasures,) our daughter looked at this and saw something completely different: she wanted a fuzzy, heart, key chain.

Why not? I’m so happy to share a new Big + Small project. We love side-by-side creating which is also doable within a very small window of time and a lot of fun to share together.  Whether you’re making these for yourselves, in a group or party or as gifts, we wish you fun, too!
