Christmas critters...

 I had a lot of fun stitching up these felt Christmas Critters for my grands.  They're all snuggled in a basket, but pretty soon they'll be hopping into the Christmas trees of wee children.

 My inspiration came from Cassie at You Go Girl.  There is one free pattern for a squirrel, and if you look a little at the link, I think you'll come across an owl pattern too.  The other animals I made using the squirrel pattern as a base and  free-handed the rest.  Choosing felt colors was fun and so was the embroidery.

  2. Oh so sweet Jody! Your little grands will love them. Has Cassie ever told you her squirrel story? It's very funny -- if you haven't heard it, you should ask her to tell it to you!

  5. These are too cute, Jody! The best! Your grandkids (and their mommies) will just love them!

    (PS- Did you stitch the date on the back? That might be appreciated years from now. These are keepsakes after all!)

  8. They're really sweet, Jody. Your grandchildren will love them and very creative to adapt one pattern to make several individual cute creatures.
