wrapping it up

With Christmas coming quicker each time I look at the calendar, I can now say that my Holiday knitting is DONE!
Last night I stitched the last special touches on the knitted gifts for my girls.
These are always the most fun & special gifts that I make.
Months ago, the girls looked through my patterns & chose what they wanted for me to make them... right down to the color.  A dark brown puppy with a blanket for one & a baby doll with yellow hair & a pink dress for the other.
Wanting to keep these gifts a surprise, the girls did not see me work on their projects.  I only brought them out while they were at school or sleeping.  I think the magic will pay off, because just the other night they asked when I would be making them their special toys.

The baby has a hat with braids that can be removed.


Not sure which is cuter... the belly button or the toes!

 Ruffled undies.
