I am a busy mom and don't want to make the time for a big project. This little mouse was just perfect for the amount of time I wanted to invest. I decided to make this a hand project only and ditch the machine. So much easier to make it a project on the go or to sew up a leg or two without having to take time to get the machine out. It turned out really cute and I am excited to make another one.
