nativity

i made this cloth nativity a couple of weeks ago. it has character. i really wanted a nativity that the kids could play with, but that also had a handmade feel. this time of year is so wonderful for so many reasons and the most important reason is that we celebrate the birth of Christ.  i want my kids to know that that is the most important reason. hopefully these wee peoples will help. let me introduce you to them:

the shepherds
 the wise guys
 the holy family
and the angel
i used scrap fabric and stuffed them with polyfil and beans (hopefully they don't sprout...)
next year i might make a stable and animals.

And on a sad note...we lost one of little mister's very first pair of shoes I got from you when we got him as our first foster placement. do you still have any grey booties available. he is one now and a size 3 in shoes? do you do any custom work? pretty please. I'm heartbroken. my email is davenapril@aol.com
