Look, it’s your daily portion of fruit for today! :)
With this pattern you can make your very own grapes! This bunch of grapes has more than 90 separate grapes and simply looks amazing because of the movement of the grapes and the leaves when you touch it.

The pieces of fruit can be used as a toy for children, to use as home deco to decorate your kitchen or living room. :) These are also very usable as a fun and interesting way to teach kids about the different kinds of fruit: the possibilities are endless.

They’ll make you happy for sure! :)
