Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays . . . just sharing today

This teeny tiny Teddy was made years and years ago. My goodness. My children were small. I love him to death. Haha. The teeny tiny Santa hat I made recently. A new favorite! Here is the link to the pattern for the hat: http://www.woollywormhead.com/blog/2012/11/28/minikins.html

I get all choked up when I see these ornaments. I made them long, long ago. I would love to make a hundred more, but sadly, I cannot get my hands on any more of these satin covered balls.

 

New wreath for the tree! It had a bare spot. 😀 You can find a link to the pattern in this, my blog post: https://gmaellenscraftycorner.wordpress.com/2012/12/09/a-christmas-wreath-contd/

Wishing you and yours a blessed Holiday Season.  I hope to be back soon!  I was just an impulse today.  Haha…I need more ‘moments’.  Truth be told, I had an old fuddy duddy computer, and finally had enough. I replaced it, finally!  I have been so busy!     Yours truly  ~Gma Ellen
