    I did something like that for Easter, and gave them real vanilla and butter, to bake them. To make it even cuter, use a round piece of fabric, a little stuffing under the fabric and tie off.

    Perfect that they can take it along with them and keep entertained maybe at someone’s house that doesn’t have toys. The car rug.

    Great one,but for the people who can’t sew use fusible webbing or material glue, bought in any material selling store. The pockets can be hand stitched if you want , it makes is real special because of the effort going into it and who it’s from. Take it one step further and put rectangles in contrast color and triangle roofs with a drive way or just additional roads , its so simple with glue and let your imagination run with it. Love from a Gr Gram. Loved it !
