Ornament for Savvy

Description

Okay . . . here's a sample of what I did at Christmas.

Why just a sample? Two reasons:
1) I made 30 of these . . . you don't want that kind of spam :no:
2) I forgot to take pictures, so these were taken by the recipients and sent to me (the ones I actually remembered to ask to take pictures and send them to me . . . if you're a recipient who wants to send me a picture I will be more than happy to post it :eager:)

Okay . . . details . . . this was made for my friend :iconcaptain-savvy:. I asked her to pick a picture to put into it, and she picked a picture that :icondestinyfall: did of her and Niek :aww:

The ornament is approximately 4 1/2" in diameter, stuffed with fiberfill. The main body was machine sewn, everything else was hand sewn on. Lettering done with puffy paint ;)

The fabric is from a cotton shirt I found in a thrift store . . . very eighties but it made me think of the ocean and tropical islands :giggle:

The trim (gold and black) is some trim I got a JoAnns.

The pockets for the pictures are cut out of protective binder sheets for collector cards :giggle: Pretty clever, and inexpensive . . . they sewed on really well, and are acid free :nod:

This popped up in my random favs so I came to say... I still *love* it, and I hang it on my tree every year!
