First - yet another ric rack baby blanket. This one was for my friend to give to her new grandson expected to arrive in a few weeks. I just don't seem to tire of making these - they're easy and really adorable.
This pack-n-play fabric doll (think paper dolls made out of fabric) set was made for another of my friends to give to her granddaughter. I don't have any little girls in my life - but I was dying to make this. So she is the lucky winner! The fabric is from the Happy Ever After line by Riley Blake. This pattern is included with the large pack-n-play set I hope to make 'en mass' this spring with my sister. This really is such a cute line of fabric - hard to resist!
Here are all the pieces - dolls, clothes, hats, a crown, and of course, the "pack".
And the pieces all fit inside the little holder.
And it folds up all nice and neat. Adorable. Now - looking at this picture, I wish I would have sewn a cute pink button on the outside flap over the velcro stitching. Oh well.
And this is an eyeglass lanyard for my mom. I was looking at these trying to find one that I liked to order for her. Then I slept on it, woke up the next morning and went "duh". I can make one of these myself. So there you have it - a long silver chain with a little embellishment and a metal circle at the end for the glasses to slide in.
Everything looks better with a few pearls and a silver bead added to it.
Simple but just enough detail to "cute-i-fy" it!
And finally - a tote bag for a friend. I had seen this pattern for a fat quarter tote bag from the Cottage Home and had wanted to make one. Super easy and really fast to work up - which was good since I waited until the last second to whip it out.
Here is the inside. And really, can you ever have too many tote bags? I say no!
Happy holidays.
