Here are my three opening gifts at Grannie and Grandpa's.
The weather held out. While we are snowed in right now, the crazy blizzard held off until the festivities were over.
It was a very Handmade Holiday this year! Gifts for teachers, including handmade soaps, were all handmade and well received.
Some of the sewing I've done can be found below. Well, wait. Firstly, is Little Lady's dress which is seen above but not very well. Let's not talk about how I can't locate my camera the past couple of days. Can't be because the holidays were hectic, could it?
A top for Little Lady's godsister who isn't much for girly outfits. This was for her Holiday Concert in her Kindergarten. This is my rendition of a top in Ottobre 4/2004. It's made with Chez Ami jersey fabric.
Afraid? LOL Don't be! It's Little Lady's pillow pet made with the guidance of this tutorial. Thank you!
She loved it!
So those are a few of the highlights of our Handmade Holiday 2010. There were also grocery sacks, wool with flax seed handwarmers, and handmade soaps. I made a bamboo velour pillowcase and a double handed oven mitt. AND I made myself a new top for Christmas. It was a GREAT Handmade Holiday!
