Description Meet Aino. She's one of the special rag pets going to the Plush You show in Seattle this fall.
Aino likes to ride on her bike and to play house. She's really good at baking, although she tends to eat quite a lot of the cookie dough before even making it into cookies!

Aino is made from lovely undyed & untreated linen and she's filled with rags and organic cotton batting -her tail is stuffed with just the cotton batting. She has tiny little button eyes and a very old plastic button for a belly button. The surface of the button has crackled a bit with age, and it matches the linen's texture nicely. Her nose is embroidered and she has healthy blushy cheeks.
Aino is wearing a chocolate brown linen pinny, a brightly patterned green dress made from an old cotton pillowcase with a white cotton Peter Pan collar and pretty brown felt mary-jane shoes with little decorative buttons on them. The pinny and dress both fasten with a snap on the back.

Also, i love how you did the shoes. They're in a league of their own

I actually need to make myself a pinny, so I won't have to change clothes when ever I cook or bake for fear of making a mess on my "good" clothes. So, pinnies for all!
