I published this a couple weeks ago but it somehow disappeared from my blog?! The most frustrating thing about blogging is my relationship with this computer. I can't deal with it. Anyways, a bunch of people were asking me where it was so here we go...
Today is day number 7 of my handmade ornament series. We are going to be making nesting doll ornaments and cards.
Start with a basic nesting doll shape. The simpler the better! Cut your pattern in half so you have a kerchief half and a bottom half. Start stitching your pieces on using a running stitch.
When you have it sewn together stuff it with polyfill and stitch closed.
Add details using your best friend, the glue gun.
I'm not going to want to give these away!
Next I made a little card to go with the ornament. I used the same idea, this time with paper.
Wow... Your halls are going to be DECKED with all your sweet ornaments!!
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute! I'm loving felt at the moment, and the cards are perfect to go with them.
