Meet Soapy the Soap Turtle

Soapy the Soap Turtle Soapy the Soap Turtle came from Amie at the Rosebyany blog. I was over there reporting the finished Jaywalkers, when lo and behold, I saw Soapy. So I had to immediately make him of course. Took about 3 hours. Remember how I said Sunday was a day for finishing? Well, apparently it's a day for starting too. So long as you finish. Heh. Step One: Insert Soap Step Two: Push Soap In Isn't he cute? (Pardon the gratuitous linkage, can you tell I love this pattern? I want everyone to find it! HERE!

    Yay! Glad you like him! He does look cute - I like your color choices! (I think I have that variegated you chose... hmmm there may be a few more Soapies in my future, too...)

    Very pretty!

    (I find that's the only way to use soap bars, but have never seen anything cuter than an ugly red plastic contraption....) Hooray for turtles!!!!

    Entirely too cute. I might have to make a few of those for my kids.

    Your Jaywalkers look great too. I love your front porch. Someday I want to have a place with a front porch and a porch swing where I can sit and knit.

    It's like a turtle met a washcloth and decided to have an affair. Out popped the lovechild which is totally the perfect melding of your love for all things turtle and dish/washcloths!!! I love it!

    Thanks a ton for sharing the link. I have lots of S'n'C (about 20 balls) that I really should use up. I hope make one tonight as part of a baby bath set for my co-worker's daughter. Wish me luck!

    So cute! I might actually use the bars of fancy soap stashed around the apartment if I made one of these.
