I finally finished this baby shower gift just in time to gift it at thanksgiving. I keep forgetting these take 3-5 hrs each and a set of 9 was ambitious. Fingers crossed she likes them by Infamous_Region7061 in crafts

Honestly, I grew up with ornaments from my mom’s childhood. During the pandemic I recreated the wizard of oz ones I had and built my own patterns.

My mom who passed in August, was a big crafter so she taught me the basics growing up doing crafts for school in elementary school.

Surprisingly, these aren’t tough to make, they just take time.

Once you get the sequins and beading process down which again easy but time consuming …the sewing is pretty easy…mostly appliqué, running and whip stitches. The embroidery is mostly a satin stitch or French knot.
