The Teddy Bear sat beneath the Christmas tree,

Waiting patiently for morning to arrive.

He knew the little one who would be his

Would make his little heart become alive.

He smiled at thought of being hugged.

He shivered now with much delight.

To have a child’s arms around his body..

He could hardly wait through the night.

And on the morning of Christmas Day

As the children squealed with pure joy,

The Teddy Bear smiled brighter now

For he was a very happy new toy.

I managed to finally finish the afghan and I am pleased with how it turned out. Brittny will get it for her Christmas present…well at least the big present! I know she will enjoy this afghan for years. I did make an error, not counting the single crochet rows and had to add to the panel before I could finish the cross stitch, but it still turned out very nice. Please let me know what you think of my completed project.

Of course, this was not a simple project. I figure I have put in at least 200 hours if not more of working on it. I would not attempt another one for a long time! This afghan was made with love, so that will make it all the more special. All that’s left is a cloth tag to be sewn at the bottom on the wrong side telling Brittny who made the afghan and when. I have to admit I did enjoy making this afghan. Now I have to see what other projects I can get into. I never did make a teddy bear for this Christmas. Since it’s rather late, I know that project will have to go to next year.
