| Felt Bird Ornament |
Every year, I make ornaments for my niece, nephew and daughter. I give them the ornaments on Thanksgiving. It's a little treat they can always find on their place setting and, by giving it early, they can enjoy it right away. You can read the story of how I decided to create this tradition by reading my article in
When Creativity Knocks' Newsletter.

| Bird Ornaments |
This is my third year making ornaments, and I was afraid it wasn't going to happen. I've had a terrible sinus infection this past week and could barely get anything done. But I was feeling a bit better one day, so I dragged myself out of bed, found my felt, downloaded
Skip To My Lou's felt bird pattern, and went to back to bed and got sewing. I'm so happy I did. The little birds cheered me up!
And, in case you are interested, here are links to my previous year's ornaments:
2009-Half Eaten Gingerbread Man Ornament This may be my all-time favorite so far!
2010 Syko's House Ornaments I used the tutorial from her book,
Scandinavian Stitches.
