CIJ day 1 / jour 1

 

First ornament (2009) I made for friends. I think I had made 7 that year.  Had to do 2 more for me and mom afterwards because I had not thought of keeping some for us.

 

I wanted it to be non-expensive and a neighbor had given me a box of satiny colorful swatches which I used for these.  I am not a sewer so they did take more time than I thought but they were cute!

 

I think the pattern I used was like this one https://littlecraftcorner.wordpress.com/2016/06/07/stuffed-fabric-birds/
