📚 L-Shaped Base

To create the bookend structure:

Base Panels:
- ch 26.
- Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc across (25).
- Rows 2–25: ch 1, turn, sc across (25).
Make 2 identical panels for each bookend. Place a cardboard or plastic sheet inside for stiffness. Crochet the edges together with sc.
Forming the L-shape:
- Fold the two panels at 90°.
- Join with sc along the seam where the vertical and horizontal sections meet.
- Add weighted pellets or flat stones inside before final closing.

✂️ Assembly & Finishing Touches

Sew Pooh’s head and limbs to his body, then secure the honey pot to one hand.
Attach Piglet’s ears, snout, arms, and legs. Embroider smiles and small eyebrows.
Position and sew each character firmly onto the top of the L-shaped bases.
Add blush with a bit of fabric paint or pastel (optional).
Arrange both bookends so the characters “hug” your favorite books!

💡 Customization Ideas

Use weighted beads or a small brick inside the base for extra stability.
Add mini flowers, leaves, or props like a small bee for Pooh’s base.
Create variations with Pooh in a green shirt or Piglet holding a balloon.
