This weekend I thrifted the cutest book ever....like I literally gasped when I pulled it off the shelf in the craft book section of Freedom Thrift near Blue Ball (real town name, I promise).
The book is called "Soft Toys to Stitch and Stuff," a Farm Journal Craft Book, published in 1983. Sometimes I think I've seen all the cool weird vintage books...and then I encounter a new one. As soon as I opened this one, I knew the images had to be used for some Clotheshorse-isms about fast fashion, consumerism, and wealth inequality. Also, I definitely need to make some of these animals because they are all amazing!
Which one is your favorite?
ETA: A lot of you are asking me to scan patterns from this book for you. Unfortunately my scanner is too small for that. But the good news? Is that you can find the whole book here: https://archive.org/details/softtoystostitch0000bens
