Felt Stockings

I wanted to make the kids stockings and given my current obsession with all things felt, it seemed like the perfect fabric for this. I looked at lots of images online (thank you Google!) and then sat down and drew these out. Now I need to make one for Thea. :)

Grabby Ball

I made this for Ella for her first Christmas. It looked hard, but was way easy when it came time to put it together! I even had Luke and his friend Nick, stuffing each of the little sections. I also snuck some jingle bells into a couple of the sections. Apparently, I like jingle bells. :) This project and the blocks below were made out of flannel.

Soft Blocks

I made these 2 years ago for baby Christmas presents. Each baby got 2 blocks w/o ribbon tags and 2 with. The ones with the tag were more popular for the babies (age range at Christmas - 7 months - 3 months). They also had jingle bells inside.
