SO this is Christmas...

Merry Christmas everyone! We are finally home after a fun filled few days with the parents. Now we are watching the classic Goofy cartoons, with our tree all lit and a mound of gifts by the front door. great stuff. Ok, well I'm watching it while Jake is asleep on the floor. poor guy, was so tired today. He syated up with me last night finishing up Jackson and Andy's pillows that I made them. He even helped me sew the ends! What a sport :)

Anyways, since they aren't much of a surprise anymore and they are all done, I figured I'd share some of my Christmas projects. First I made my Best friend Tasha's daughter, Lilly a "lillybug" doll which turned out pretty well. It was my take on some dolls that I had found on Flickr and loved, inspired by Elsie =).





I also mentioned the pillows that I made, and embroidered for my nephews Jackson and Anderson. I used an embroidery pattern from Elsie's etsy shop for the font and they turned out great. I was so happy when they were finished.






Anyways, I've had a great day so far and got some awesome gifts...including some polaroid film from my awesome husband. I don't know about you, but around here polaroid film has been extremely hard to come across since the recent sad news. But nonetheless have a safe and happy holiday! Back to relaxing!



God Bless.
Jenn.

I LOVE it all!!! Excellent! I have recently found a need to learn how to hand embroider! It's not too hard is it? :D
