Gifts Glore!

As a child I have always made Christmas presents, over the recent years though I have really started to take this task seriously. So as I have shown you already I have been making padded hangers, his and her style, I have completed four more, the stash has nearly finished.
I have also finished the scarf I have been knitting for my Dad. It's moss stitch which I think I'm in love with.


I have also finished drying the felted ball I have made for Arthur's stocking. This is so cute and they are so so easy to make. They also look good with a few beads and a thread and Bobs your Uncle you have hanging Christmas balls. A few of us made these at the mother and baby group I run.



And finally, I know you will all love this! Taken from Petra Berger's Feltcraft, making doll, gifts and toys, book I have made another stocking filler. Gnome with a bed.




This gnome fits in perfectly with the craft book challenge http://lieslmade.wordpress.com/2010/12/29/craft-book-challenge/ I have only stumbled across this recently, which is sad because it is now coming to an end, but I feel pleased to have sneaked in a couple of entrys.



But finally all of these gifts become apart of my Crafty Christmas Stash http://craftychristmasclub.blogspot.com/



So Christmas is coming along nicely thank you, how about you?

  5. Girl...you have been busy..I am envious of you..Such cute ideas. I love the clothes hangers, and I must confess--- I am fixing to attempt some..but I think I will be stingy and do them for ME.ha.

    I am working on Poodle skirts for my grandaughters, Emily & Callie. They have been asking me for one for a year now.. So.. I think Santa will add it to their stockings.
    Happy sewing/crafting.
