I didn’t make many holiday gifts this year.  More food than anything else.  I did make a couple of things that I thought I’d share.  Forgot to take pictures of most of it before I gave it away.

I made this black little kitty for our friend’s little gal.  We have a black kitty and they have a black kitty, so of course, a black kitty doll was in order.  I used Wee Wonderfuls Olive & Archie pattern to make these (which I swear I did not copy this idea from Meg- which is funny to think how similar many of our ideas sometimes are).  The pattern is great, easy to follow and tweek into a cat.  My little friend loved her new kitty and was walking around holding it by the ear. Too cute.

I also made these fizzy bath bombs for my friends and for the boys too (who doesn’t love a fizzy bath?). Funny story about these:  My friend’s boyfriend ate one thinking it was some kind of candy!  He spit it out immediately but had a fizzy mouth for a while. HA!

I made pajamas and up-cycled notebooks for the boys, along with purchasing our yearly load of books, family games and puzzles.  Nothing crazy.  Small and nice gift giving.

    HI! I love your kitty! I’m working on an Olive and Archie for my two little boys. Can you help me? I cannot figure out how to sew the legs and bottom on!

    Love your kitty. Of course my real one is black so I favor that color. Gotta put his pic on my blog.
    My birds flew today. This is so fun!

    Your kitty is so cute. Great gifts. It’s so fun to make things, rather than buying them. Great job!
