Wild Things

Is this not the cutest?  My nephews are going to love their new shirts.  They have whiskers, fuzzy tails, and buttons.  What fun!  I found a the idea and some of the pattern for this here at Meet at Mikes http://meetmeatmikes.blogspot.com/2009/11/how-to-make-where-wild-things-are.html   I came up with the tail and arms myself.  I used white fleece vs felt  because it will hold up longer in the wash.  I used real buttons down the front and  I used button/utility  thread for the whiskers.  The tail is made from monster fur (don't tell PETA) and it wraps around to the back.

     I made three of these shirts and four of these adorable  hats for more of the wild things in my life.  This pattern can be found at instructables  http://www.instructables.com/id/Sew-a-Where-the-Wild-Things-Are-hat-pattern/ . 

Here I am using every spare second wisely, putting the heel to the pedal. Ten minutes early to attend a Christmas party,  3 days left until Christmas, I have no time to waste!   3 more gifts to make and I still have to Christmas shop for my own child.     AHHHHHH!!!  Where does the time go?
