My last Christmas post (maybe?)


This is the craft that started my Christmas creating madness and it was almost the end of me! I just wasn't smart enough to simplify them as I should have. I wanted to make an actual angry birds game for my grandchildren. If only I had known that there would be one in stores like Amazon, I could have saved myself hours of work. But I didn't, so I made many of these beanbags for my grandchildren.

I was not capable of designing them so I found this site with a set of patterns. They were much too big, so I copied them at around 50%-67%, but then that caused all kinds of problems. They were sometimes impossible to turn, in such cases as the feather on the red bird's head. They were just too small. Nevertheless they got done and here they are in person.

The black bombing bird...
I made this bigger in size to duplicate his powers.


That bad pig who stole those eggs...



The yellow bird who can be very zippy...



The original red bird...



Once again, the entire clan.

B.T.W. Bryan, this is the clan that you are waiting to arrive.

The reaction...

Worth every moment I spent on it.
