More holiday-ness

A quick share of some of things I've been up to this week. A quick pillow I made for a gift exchange for our Relief Society Christmas party. I decided very last minute to go and gave myself an hour to make this so the buttons are just glued on and the pencil marks are still there. I'm making another 2 when I have time. Ha- I just said when I have time...


And some sheep softies for Kaci and Kennedy.

Again, these are not my original idea in anyway but almost exact copies of things I've found on etsy but ran out of time to buy so I sketched and made my own. I've accomplished more than this this week, I just haven't gotten around to taking pictures ;o). Next up- Raccoon share (it's a story) and head purses.

ETA: The lamb idea is from Bit of Whimsy Dolls and she has the pattern and the dolls for sale in her shop here- http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5062394 . I didn't use her pattern so I can't endorse it but they are super cute. Stinking dial-up doesn't allow me to buy e-patterns. Love the Billie Anne dolls too.


The pillow was inspired by this amazingly talented Etsy store -http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5263751. I love the monogram pillows too!

    Love the pillow! Not bad for short notice. I would have been bringing peach honey from storage if I decided last minute to go.

    You did a great job on the little sheep. Your kids are going to love them!

    Wish I was half as talented as you.

    Those pillows are to die for. What did you use for the tree limb? I love the snuggly little sheep, too.

    Love it! The pillow turned out great. I have the hardest time finding buttons, but I would love to make something like it.

    I've seen those lambs before and you did a great job sketching your own pattern. Lucky girls!
