My Hand Made Christmas Gifts

I finished most of my gifts very early this year. With the exception of a scarf and the rabbit I had all of my gifts done by the beginning of September. I have been hoarding these pictures... many of which I just realized were HORRIBLE. So I have a few photos to share...

I made this for my sister, Debbie. 

These are the hat and scarf I made for my nephew, Nathaniel. 

I made a matching set for my other nephew, Taylor.

I made this cowl for my little sister, Tesla... it will look great with her red hair!

I made the rabbit for my little brother, Jacob and the bear for my older brother, Buddy. 

I made these for Buddy's new baby. They didn't find out the gender of the baby and he/she is due Jan 1. I have nicknamed this baby... Baby Doe.

These weren't all the gifts I made, I also made a scarf for my stepmom, a hat and scarf set for my nephew (Xander), a hat for my nephew (Colton), a hat and a turtle for my sister in law, a scarf for my brother, a snowman for my mother in law and a blanket for Jeff.

I am now working on a special project my sister and I are doing together and a blanket for next years "Be a Santa for a Senior". I have purchased enough yarn to make 2 more blankets for that charity and a blanket for my sister. I am trying to keep busy!

I had a great Christmas. My MIL got me a yarn organizer, some storage bowls and some jewelry. My dad sent me some home made banana bread. Jeff bought me some clothing, a new computer (will be here in a week or more), new boots and $35.00 in YARN! My mom is flying me home in August for my sister's wedding.
