It’s Kevin’s birthday today so I couldn’t resist featuring the latest addition to his giraffe collection here in his honour. I happened across a lovely new shop in Chichester on Monday called Clothkits and took a look around. While I was there I found some cute kits for making toy giraffes so I bought one and sneakily sewed it together while Kevin was at band practice on Monday night, ready for his birthday. He’s been christened Fortie so I’m sure you can figure out which significant birthday Kevin is celebrating today. Happy birthday Kevin!

He's lovely! Love the blackness behind him. Yum. caroleagle · 2011-09-07: 11:38
