~Christmas Mice~

Hello, friends. I absolutely adore Christmas mice, so decided to try my hand at making some. These are from the Burda #4231 pattern, now discontinued. The pattern includes three sizes: 6", 10", and 14" mice. These two are the 6" ones. I added a dress under the girl's pinafore, and a shirt under the boy's waistcoat. Before arthritis, my work would have looked better. These turned-out fairly nice, don't you think? Do you all love Christmas mice?

Linking-up with: ~Show-Licious' Craft Showcase#11~ and




Blessings, Danice G.

This couple is magnificent, and the best kind of mice to have! I love the tails sticking out and the clothes are so cute. I haven't made any mice for a while now, hmm, I wonder if I could squeeze one or two in before the holidays?
Thank you for showcasing your Christmas Mice!

They are realllllly cute!!! I don't have room to decorate very much. I live in one room and share a house with my best friend and her elderly parents. I help her as much as I can, but, I too have arthritis and fibromyalgia as well so some days I can't even stitch.
