I refuse to show an up-close photo of the cute Christmas onesie I made with Amy and Jason and Jay, because after they left and I had to sew the pieces together, well, let's just say that my applique technique needs some work. OK, a lot of work. Anyway, here's my little reindeer under the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve.
(Those are her hand prints acting as reindeer antlers, in case you can't tell from the photo.)
So, since that outfit didn't pan out how I imagined it would, I decided at the last minute (on Christmas Eve!) to make Cora a Christmas skirt to wear on the holiday. The only picture I have of her wearing it is a grainy cell phone photo at the airport though, so this close-up will have to do. I made it lots longer than her other skirt (which she's finally outgrown, height-wise), and the waist a bit on the loose side, so she should be able to wear it next December. It's pretty cute, if I do say so myself!
(I also made Eli a pair of robot PJ pants for Christmas, but forgot to take a picture before I wrapped them up and mailed them out, so hopefully D&T can snap one for me next time he wears them. I hear they fit, so that's a good start. Thank goodness I have a same-size-and-build model in the house!)
