How can you resist the charm of these alien giraffe dolls by WA-based label Two Little Banshees? Kate Henderson is a talented crafter who creates delightful softies and bags with fantastic fabrics. Kate named her label after her twin daughters, who also inspire her soft toy range.
Not only is Kate a talented artist, but also a very generous crafter who shares many of her designs on craft sites, and has had her soft toy patterns appear in the books 'Softies' and 'More Softies', published by Penguin Australia and The Australian Women's Weekly magazine. I particularly love Kate's range of Australian animal-inspired softies. A platypus or dropbear would be perfect for a little one in any country.
You can find Two Little Banshees softies and bags on Etsy. Clever Kate also sells hand-dyed yard on her Etsy store One Fat Slug. You can also learn more about Kate's world of sewing, knitting, quilting and crafting on her blog and check out designs on Flickr.Shop online for kids products from great stores in the Australian Online Kids and Baby Store Directory.

Thanks for featuring me and my alien giraffes!
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome Kate; all of your softies would be at home in a stylish child's toybox!
