Ada-bot

I've been on a creative bender! Yesterday I made a huggable robot, Ada, named after my favorite "first programmer ever", Ada Lovelace (1815 - 1852). I'm actually quite surprised at how well it turned out considering that it's my first plushie, that I just figured out how to cut fleece, and that I had no pattern. I cut squares and rectangles out of fleece for the legs, body and head. The heart was cut out of sticky felt (the same as on the Valentines envelope) and the eyes and mouth are also felt. The legs and arms are so skinny that I had to use a pencil to stuff them. I chose to use a drop of glue for the pipe cleaner antenna to keep the look of simplicity. It's alive, it's alive!
