I saw a tutle like this for sale but didn't feel the need to spend the money on it. So, as usual, I made it myself. :) I just drew out a tutrle on paper and started working away cutting fabric to work.
If you want to buy one this is where I saw it for sale: http://www.etsy.com/listing/69190537/yertle-the-turtle-green-or-pink-crinkle
I used a plastic bag for under the shell and in the feet and head I used an old wipe bag (the kind people use for refills). I added skinny batting to the head and body and left the feet alone. I appliqued on the shell: first added head and bond to the shell fabric, peeled off the paper backing and started pinning in place with ribbon under the edges. I zig zaged it down then ironed the shell to make it stick down good. :)
I guess I should have taken pictures of it as I went along, but I didn't. Anyway, this project is very simple and fun! It turned out cute! :) On the tummy of the turtle I used red minky.
