Rose Patch

Rose Patch began in 2013. I love to sew. I created the Sitting Pretty range of animals. I take orders I am a retired Early Child Development teacher.

I understand the fantasy play needs of a child. I design my toys specifically for play. I live in Kwa-Zulu Natal where there are many game reserves for indigenous wildlife. Many of my toys are based on animals in my province and are often dressed in local design fabric.

So grateful for this order. Two animals off as gifts to two little boys in Cape Town. One is a new born! Lovely when they go to the same home.

I like to donate items that I have in stock and haven't sold. Cat Care in PE are always grateful for donations which they auction to raise funds. They find homes for kittens and in the recent floods, they rescued a few very wet and half-drowned kittens. I have a new kitten grandchild in the UK and so in honor of Bonnie living her best life in Oxford UK, I would like to donate to

Tonight is the German School Market in Westville. Lovely stalls and German food. Try to come early to secure a parking nearby. If you have to park and walk it will still be worthwhile.

Kids love to imitate the grown-ups in their lives. Felt and fabric food will combine so well with a kiddies kitchen both at home or pre-school. No choking hazard and washable. DM to order. Or see you at the German School market on Friday night. I will be there!

Christmas is coming! And this is one of the nicest markets in our area. Get there early because it gets busy!

The German School market is only two weeks away. I will be there with my Sitting Pretty animals. Hope to see many of you there. This is a very popular market, with stall holders and shoppers.

This is the face of the very first Sitting Pretty Giraffe I created. My photography was very basic as I sat him on the wall next to a veggie patch. I was experimenting and had not designed clothing. I used plastic eyes with hooded lid. The clothes I made were shorts and bow tie for boys and flimsy tutus for girls. When giraffe print was no longer available, I tried using tshwe tshwe. I felt this would give them an African feel. But the stiff tshwe tshwe fabric broke many a needle and finger nail. I then found the mustard fabric with patches that I still use today. I made a few changes, the arms are now attached by a button which creates a hinge and the giraffe is a bit taller. The eyes are embroidered as I stopped trusting the safety of the plastic eyes. Clothing is dungarees and bow or neck tie for boys. The girls have full tutus with press stud fastening and three layers of tulle. The Giraffe are very popular with customers and I sold 16 last year. You may order via DM.
