And a partridge in a pear tree...

It's the first day of the 12 days of Christmas, so I made a partridge in a pear tree for my true love. It took longer than I thought because the darn bird's tail feathers didn't want to work out with the fabric. So I decided to just cut my losses- literally. I cut off the tail feathers and opted for the wool felt instead. Overall it came out nice. I wanted the bird to be removable so I used a snap. Now will I continue tomorrow with the turtle doves? We'll see. I have a lot of Christmas sewing to do. I've been sewing what I want (pretty much passing fancies like this) rather than what I should be doing, so I've got to knuckle down or my packages will never get sent!

Well, only 11 more shopping days til Christmas! Fa la la la la!

Done

Not with MY Christmas shopping, but done with an order for Christmas. It's for an 8 year-old girl in Colorado from her Godmother here in town. I hope she likes it! It's my second attempt at doing a zippered closure. Seemes to work out alright though. Here's a peek:
