Beware: Picture Heavy

You guys didn’t actually think I sewed nothing all those blog post-less weeks did you?!? Ok, well, I mostly didn’t, and as soon as Christmas break came, I did some major cram sewing (yes, I am inventing words for this post). But I did do some work here and there. I wasn’t able to get pictures of all of the presents I made, and most are just of the fabric, but here is what I made for  Christmas this year.

I made pajamas out of these four fabrics. The first three are flannel (JoAnns is a rip off!:() and the last one is from a sheet. I especially like the frog fabric!:) It’s so cute!

A backpack made from this fabric. My niece, Karah,  is obsessed with Spiderman!

Then, this Stupid Creature, for my nephew. I found the instructions for this on Threadbangers.  The best part? His mouth is a pocket!! Another reason to like this creature, is that he’s mismatched and irregularly shaped on purpose. Meaning a mistake I may or may not make goes unnoticed!:):)

This keychain/lanyard. What do you call these anyway?!? Keyholders?:) I don’t know.:)

And, this year we made our very first gingerbread man (well, my mom did anyways). And a gingerbread girl!:) I wanted to make a gingerbread house, but my mom said it was too much work for something that was just going to be eaten!
