The start of Christmas Projects

These are only a couple of projects I've been working on for Christmas gifts. These are the only ones I can post right now (in case the recipient would look on here)

The first one is a bear I made for Bailey for her birthday. She loves dolls and stuffed animals so I thought it would be fun to make up a pattern and I crocheted it out of some yarn I got from Grandma Brown.

It's not fabulous but I think it'll be fun for her.

This is a pattern I found and loved. The only problem is I picked horrible colors. I love the pattern though and it was so easy to make. I'll probably use this pattern again.

Pass the Piggies

For a family reunion they were having a craft auction to raise money for the next year's reunion and I found this tutorial and I had to make it. I used to play this game all the time growing up. It was a fast project and very satisfying in the end.

G-I-R-A-F-F-E, Giraffe, Giraffe, Giraffe

Isn't he cute?! Thanks to my SIL Lisa who found the pattern here

I really am loving it. This was for a friend's baby so I'm going to have to make another one for my baby

By the way, the title is a song. I'm really not crazy

I'm trying to transfer over all of my craft projects that I orriginally posted on my family blog, so bear with me if you've seen these before! Here's the teddy I crocheted. It's 12" and is made with thin chenille yarn. It was a fairly difficult pattern. I'm glad I did it, but probably wouldn't do it again! (I'm into instant gratification projects anymore...) Here's the Itty Bitty Baby Dress from Made by Rae. I made the larger of the two sizes and it's still a little big for my now 9 pounder. Some Stardust cloth baby shoes and a Heather Bailey headband to match.
My Black Apple Doll that I named Fiona (Apple) :)

Baby burp cloths A la Jill. I've made too many of these to post again, but this fabric was my favorite!

And last but not least, I bought this crochet pattern from Nikki Painter on etsy.com
