The other day I showed you those cute little advent calendar bags I recently made.
So I thought I’d also show you what I stuck in one of the bags.
My oldest and his family just bought their first house. I can’t wait to go see it!
I couldn't find a First Home ornament so I thought I’d sew one up.
I just used some of the scrap pieces of felt wool that I have. The windows and doors were needle felted.
Then on the back I printed out Our First Home on some transfer paper and ironed it on some cotton fabric.
Then machine stitched it on the back. The rest was hand stitched.
It’s not a Hallmark but it’s a cute remembrance of their first home together.
Can you guess what the roof is made from?
