A Whale Of A Good Time

By Susan

Are you smiling? I know you’re smiling because that’s the effect this adorable whale made from recycled denim jeans had on me when I first saw it! This cutie was created by the talented Mevrouw (Ms. Whale) who blogs at the blog, Valaan Villapaita, translated means “Whale Sweater.” What a cute name for a blog!

Mevrouw has written a super detailed tutorial sharing exactly how she made this adorable stuffed toy whale. The pictures are excellent and when you click on them, they enlarge.

This is such a great design and incorporates using both sides of the jean denim fabric for contrast. The “wrong” side of denim jeans makes for a great whale belly doesn’t it. 🙂

    Yes I did smile when I first saw this precious Whale. I smiled for two reasons, 1) being that I just love Whales and now I can have my own, and 2) I saw this one a site where people sell a lot of the items that they make and it was $75+ and now all I will have to invest is my time because I have the old jeans. I am just so, so extremely excited!!! Thank you so much! I will post a picture of mine when I have finished making it.
