zizzle zoo

i have had the idea to make these guys (or some like them) for a real long time.  i had a friend send me a prinerest-she said she just thought of me when she saw it.  i dont quite believe that.  but it was just the push to get me to make these guys finally. arent they cute???  i have plans to make a fox/puppy/kitty pattern too.  they are cotton on the front, soft minky on the back, the ribbons kids love and some crinkle material inside for noise.  

a zizzle being loved

My kids LOVE their zizzles. I bet you guys are wondering where in the world I got that name? zizzle??? When I was little I sucked my thumb but ONLY if I had the satin blanket binding to rub between my fingers. Mom says that I named that blanket binding zizzle and it stuck. That is always been called at our house. Now any ribbon that makes the same feeling is a zizzle ribbon. Try it, the feeling is kinda relaxing. (at least to me)
