Gift for the little one in your life...

I wish I could say that I made these, but it was more like, "hey...here's the pattern that I found and here's the fabric and can you make them for me?" as I handed them over to my fashion designer/seamstress neighbor.  I knew my sewing machine would not do the job around those numbers, yet, I was still adament that these be made for my niece Chloe for Christmas.  I didn't know how I could do it due to time etc...and then wham...the sewing angels must have smiled down upon me.  And now, after they are done, well...I wish I could keep them for myself!  (Sorry, Chloe)

I had linen for the front and some fun fabric from my closet stash for the numbers and back.  Lentils are the perfect filler.  I'm not even kidding...I want to play with them all day.  It took everything I had to box them up and send them to Utah. 


You can still make them in time for Christmas!  ...well, that is, if you have my neighbor;) 





All boxed  up and pretty!

That is really cool - I think I might see if I can pull some together as well. I have some unused fabric around here somewhere!
