For the love of Sprout

"Sprout" was a sleeping bag featuring the Green Giant character, Sprout. Scraps' earliest memory of Sprout was from when she was nine years old, and he has been with her for over 20 years since. So many, many people have had the pleasure of sleeping with Sprout (as he was the usual guest blanket) that he had become very threadbare.

Now he will be part of the quilt, and the very first craftiwoo.


Here Mother Earth begins the painful procedure as Scraps says her farewells.



One of the many Sprout squares.



The aftermath and carnage.



Please do not despair for Sprout, for he is going to a better place. His role as cuddly warm thing had been compromised, and he was unhappy put away in the linen closet. Someday soon, he will be keeping people toasty again.

We love you Sprout!
