What do softies do when their book comes out? They go on a road tour just like the celebrites they deserve to be!
That's right, a few of the softies from Softies have decided to tour the U.S. this fall and encourage crafters far and wide to make a softie! Yes, the actual plush toys are on the road and stopping first in Cleveland, Ohio at Stitch Cleveland, a cool workshop space with classes in knitting, sewing, felting and....softie-making! If you're in the area Sept. 15 - 25, stop by, get a close-up look at the softie stars and say hi to Shannon, owner of Stitch Cleveland.
Which softies are on tour you ask? Lucky Dog and Treeling who are on the cover above as well as Luella Bear and her baby bear and Wee Robot.
I'm not sure if they'll sign autographs, but if you're nice, you may be able to take a picture of you next to them!
This is so cool!!!! Are you coming to the UK. The book looks fantastic!

CO-owner of Stitch Cleveland! Heidi and Megan, the other owners, are also helping to tend to the Softies' every need. Good thing we all have pups at home -- Lucky will never want for treats! Oh, and he's sending you a photo of their arrival now...

Hi. Congrats on the wonderful book. It looks adorable and very inspirational. I couldn't get to your email - I don't have GMail - I wanted to ask if you would like to stop by my blog someday; I have softies (ad I'm not afraid to use them;-))) -Christine, Denmark
