Birds and Suffolk Puffs

Here are the Suffolk Puffs (or yo-yos to some of you) I attempted tonight they came out smaller than I was expecting but fine to use for decorating some of my little items and great for a first attempt in many many moons. I tracked down some step by step instructions at Burda for anyone who wants a go themselves.

I've sat and cut out plenty of birds tonight they are pinned and ready to go. I also made up a tester one for my friend Laura's cats. I'm going to make her some for cat toys but we need to test if I've put enough catnip in the stuffing. Here she is, a pretty little pinky spotted one.
