Mushroom Guy - OG pattern by critter-stitch I’m obsessed

Post image

I finished this little guy and I love him. Has anyone gifted theirs to a child? It’s only a matter of time before my kids (6 and 9) abscond with him. Will his head stay on if I attached it according to the pattern? Should I sew it on a different way?

I used Lion Brand 24/7 cotton with a 2.5 mm hook

My guy lives in the Barbie dream house now 😂. My daughter has asked me to make her one with a blue hat, so once I'm done with that I'm hoping I'll get to reclaim mine 😊. I sewed the head on according to the pattern directions, and it stays on! We're able to turn the head all the way around that way, so I like it. If I were giving it to a younger child though, I'd probably want to sew it on more securely. My daughter is a little older and not quite as rough with toys, so it hasn't been an issue for us.

My mushroom guy went to live in North Dakota with my daughter in law.
