Time for Two


Sweet little Paxton Bridges is two. He was such a cutie pie at his birthday party with that darling little grin and those perfect eyes. He made my day when he opened our gift and slipped this right onto his arm.

With some felt, embroidery floss and a good movie to watch, you can make one in no time. The watch is the width of my camera strap at the widest part, and I traced a quarter to make the face. Lilly's wrist is about 4 inches around (she was my model), and I added some inches after that for the velcro.

Thanks to Dana at MADE for this excellent idea featured on her blog. Go here for pictures of other felt watches.
