Hello all I have a little bit of Nanny Annie madness on my desk to share with you this week. Every year the twins have a visit from Bob their Elf on the shelf during December so this year he has visited Nanny early so he [and all his friends] can be fitted out with different outfits. ....
Bob arrived on Monday and helped me make 6 little face masks so he and his friends will be safe from the virus.
Do bear in mind I have no patterns for any of his outfits and they really just come out of my wild imagination.
He came with several requests. The first of which was a gingerbread man outfit.
He then asked for a snowman outfit so out came the white felt. A hat, a bit of ribbon and a couple of buttons and hey presto!
Next was a kilt for him and a couple more for two of his friends. He rather liked this one.
He then asked me to make a grass skirt for his wife Betty as a surprise for her. She could really do with a top made out of a couple of shells but I haven't found any as yet.....update...I've found some and now just need to work out how to make a top with them lol.
Finally he asked for a doughnut outfit so of course out came the seeding beads....yes I'm mad but I know it will put a smile on the twins faces.
The other thing I was asked to make was a tiny dog's bed because apparently Bob is bringing his new puppy with him this year too :-)
I hope you have enjoyed your visit and I've left you smiling. We need smiles more than ever at the moment so why not find a few smiles and join in on Friday when I find smiles to share with you all.
Hugs,
Annie x

Total madness in your sewing room but oh so lovely! You are such a clever one - the kids will love the outfits. xx Jo
You are such a fun Grandma-the outfits are fabulous and I love the teeny masks. Happy sewing!
Hahahahahaha, love your masks especially. My daughter is self isolating from her job in school and wants to put her Xmas decks up to cheer herself up. This certainly will. Take care with Xmas hugs from Sue. #18
What a lovely interesting post this morning Annie, I love how you have made all these outfits and i really do like his mask. You should market the masks for those with shelf on the elves.
Hugs, Neet 5 xx
Lol, pure genius - all the outfits are great especially the doughnut! I can’t wait to see Betty’s shell bra though, you’ll have to share that one with us. So glad you’ve had fun making these!!

What a fun Nanny Annie you are for your grandkids! Love all of Bob's new outfits and I can't wait to see his puppy! Have a lovely week, Annie! zsuzsa #21
Oh wow, Annie! What an imagination you have. Those outfits are all wonderful and the elf masks are brilliant. Of course, my favourites have to be the kilts - they are fabulous. I think my sewing machine is sulking at the moment - I just can't work up the energy to sort out what's what and get sewing again. I need a prod from your sewing mojo, I think. Have a lovely week. Hugs, Ellie x #32

What fun! I absolutely love this. I have been so grateful that we never got into the elf on the shelf thing, but you and your family are taking it to a whole new level! Happy Belated WOYWW. Take care and stay safe. With love & God Bless, Caro xxx (#14)
Awww Annie, Bob's outfits are just adorable!! My favourite is the gingerbread man. I've been watching the Bake Off, and the Aldi sponsorship intros have some delightful little animated gingerbread men that make us laugh!
Happy belated WOYWW,
