Counting the days, and making little treasures

Please note that Tin Soldiers Studio will be closed between 17 December and 25 January.
At this time of year I really get a Santa's workshop feeling here in the studio.  I am crazy busy finishing Christmas orders, and making small things to give away to my family.  One of the fun things we made at Sew Along recently is a camel ornament.  I found the free pattern somewhere on the internet a while ago, now I can't find the original page so that I can link back to it.  I'm sharing it here with you, hope no one shoots me :-)
Here's a picture of my herd so far.

I made mine from felt, and sewed on the outside with blanket stitch.  I could imagine that colourful scraps of cotton fabric would also look pretty.  And lots of beads and sequins, there can never be too many!
