A big blue bird

Remember these Urban Jungle soft toys that I sewed for our two eldest? We only had two girls at that moment so of course once our youngest started to realize she did not have one of those big soft toys she started to request one. Enter the perfect Christmas present for our youngest (last year)....

Christmas is the best time of the year in my opinion. Having my birthday in this period adds to that. I just love the month December. And sewing for Christmas is even better. Last year I sewed this advent calendar, which the girls love and is a big hit. This year I have another Christmas...
