Description: Learn the basics of the Proggy technique with step-by-step photo guides, then set your creativity free with the easy-to-follow patterns. In Proggy Menagerie, designer and author Hayley Smith provides a collection of adorable three-dimensional rag-rug projects that can be adapted for use as children’s toys, pet toys, or home accessories. The technique is easy to master—simply cut your fabric into strips and push it through the holes in some Hessian backing—and has been a traditional way of creating mats for centuries. This technique, known as “progging” in northeast England, is familiar the world over. Proggy Menagerie puts a refreshing modern twist on the technique, moving it beyond the usual two-dimensional rug format, with instructions for making twenty fun and funky three-dimensional stuffed animals. With a few adaptations to the backing, filling, and eye materials, the projects can be safely used as soft toys for children, chew toys for pets, or be used as doorstops and draft blockers around your home.

FYI: I take a great deal of pride in offering good products....products that I would want to buy myself, at reasonable prices with excellent, careful packaging and some of the most cost effective shipping on Ebay. I send your packages to you based on a simple formula -- one of the best on EBAY.....the actual cost of the shipping plus 24 cents for delivery confirmation. This is for single items or multiple item packages. Delivery confirmation lets you KNOW that I have shipped your purchase and we both know if and when it has been delivered. I charge nothing extra for my time or for my packaging materials. I buy bubble mailers....not the cheap ones, but quality envelopes that protect against rough handling by the USPS and most often gets your book to you in the same condition as it was when I shipped it out. I most often offer at least two shipping options....one that is fast and a bit more expensive and one that is slower and "cheap." Since I primarily sell books this is usually media mail. Media mail by USPS definition, on average takes 3 - 9 business days. If it is a busy time of year, a big box or a destination that is further than most, it can often take longer than that. I ship out within 24 hours of payment (or the next business day if it is a holiday or weekend). I often go to the PO twice a day. That is all that I can do to help insure timely delivery for you. PLEASE KNOW -- I have no control over the time it takes the USPS once the package leaves my hands. . If you win this auction, please consider the above and judge my performance as a seller accordingly when you leave feedback. THANKS!!!
