Sorry, little niece, not even you are cute enough to avoid your aunt's handmade jewelry

These are pacifier holders for my future niece.  They're my present for my sister in law's upcoming baby shower.   You clip them to the baby's clothing, and snap a pacifier into them, and that way they don't fall on the floor all the time and get dirty.  It's been a very long time since I've done any embroidery at all, much less without a pattern, but I like the way the little felt animals came out.  They're double sided, and all the ugly backs of the embroidery are hidden in between the two layers of felt.

Anyway, my sister in law's doing the kid's room in a jungle theme with elephants, I made the aliens for my sister who loves aliens, and the owls for myself, because I've been collecting them since I was nine.  So there's something to represent each of her paternal aunts, and something her mother likes.

Anyone thinking of making your own, remember to keep them six inches or less when finished, otherwise they're a strangulation hazard.
