Homemade Christmas

I've been trying to make more gifts this year for Christmas. So after seeing a friends felt food that she made I decided I had to try it. I found felt on sale this week so I started these earlier this week and sewed the last stitch on the last cookie about 15 minutes ago.
I think they turned out great, especially since I'd never done it before, I had to learn 3 stitches and didn't use any patterns.

The only problem will be not giving them to him early!!! I'm SO bad at keeping gifts secret, Andy's last birthday I think I actually talked him into opening his presents from me a couple days early. I can't stand it!
Anyway...here's what I made. Breakfast (bacon, eggs, pancakes), lunch (sandwich makings, bread, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, lunch meat and chips), and cookies.

Oh my goodness! How adorable! I saw some fabric play food for sale somewhere, but it was so expensive. I thought about making it myself!
I know it's a little ways away before Scarlett would play with it, but it seems like it would be so much fun. Good for you, Kiz!
Everything looks amazing. Although..is that supposed to be syrup on the pancakes? One looks like a chicken foot! I can't believe how good it all looks. You should show me how to do it when you come visit!

All of it looks awesome, Kizzie! I've been wanting to make chips, but I wasn't sure how to go about it. I love the Doritos, though! If you don't mind, I think I might steal that idea! :D

Kizzie, those are so AWESOME!

Maybe when you come to visit we can have a felt food making party at Karen's!

I love them. Even chicken-foot syrup.

How many layers of felt are in them? Did you put stuffing in the cookies?

I may have to try this for the kids' birthdays. I'm already about done with Christmas.
