Christmas Koala

As I mentioned in the previous post, I entered myself in the New Zealand Handmade Christmas Ornament swap.  I'd like to introduce you to what will be the first decoration on our tree this year:

How cool is that!?

Handmade, obviously, but Christine in Australia, who has a blog over at http://fruitsofheart.wordpress.com/ .  She describes her creating of this ornament here.  I'm so incredibly happy with it, and I just hope that she enjoys the ornament I made for her as much as I love this little guy.  I can't post pictures yet of what I made, as I want to make sure she has received it first, so I don't spoil the surprise.
