Whatever possessed me to decide to make 6 Rudys at once?? Someone please tell me!! I think I was doing my usual Christmas craft dreaming, but instead of keeping it as a dream, I decided to actually do it! Insane I tell you!! I made them with the intention of being gifts for the kiddies' teachers and therefore I only needed four, so what was my logic in starting six? Am I crazy??
This has been the dialogue in my brain every spare moment spent stitching for the past few days...
Thankfully, however, about an hour ago my crazy questioning turned into pleasure when they were finally done!!!!!
And now I know exactly why!! because they are so darned cute, that's why!!! I have my own personal sleigh pulling team!
And If I want I even have a Rudy Tree!!
So now the dilemma is - how am I ever going to part with some of them??!!

(PS - Tips & Tricks Tuesday has now become TTTF - "Tips & Tricks Tuesday Fortnight!" and will definitely be back next week!)
Hey Melly I love your Rudy tree. Is that why we didn't have Tips and Tricks Tuesday? That's a trick in itself to make 6 Rudy's. I know I have made one and it took me ages. Well Done!

Well if those aren't the cutest reindeer around! The fabrics are fabulous and they do make a very festive looking tree!
