FELT CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS
I made over a dozen of these as gifts. It looks even better with a green dotted ribbon.

When I first went to the fabric store they were out of all felt that had an even remotely Christmas-y color, so I ended up buying orange... originally I had the idea of making Matrioshka dolls, but as I was later informed this can also be mistaken for a -rather festive- baby Jesus.

I made this for a friends son who loves bunnies- can be reused for Easter...

This tree is meant to be a doorknob ornament. I got most of the buttons from my grandma's stash. Before she throws out old clothes she always removes the buttons.

Another doorknob ornament. I used transparent thread to the secure gingerbread man and only used regular thread for "icing" because the figure was so small.

I've been making felt Easter eggs decorated with ribbons, strips of fabric and buttons. As the last pic with the frowning Lego figure shows, these eggs can also be used to hide tiny gifts or jelly beans. But as my sons have been watching me make the eggs there is no way they would believe these were dropped off :) by the Easter Bunny...
