Abby of While She Naps hosts a blog about designing and sewing stuffed animals and running a creative business. Today I am presenting Abby’s “Christmas Pickle Ornament” tutorial so you can create one for your tree. Why a Christmas pickle? It seems to be based on some sort of German legend but; traditionally, an ornamental pickle is placed on a Christmas tree as one of the Christmas decorations. On Christmas morning, the first child to find the pickle on the tree would receive an extra present from Santa Claus or would be said to have a year of good fortune. I have been doing the pickle thing for several years and the kids enjoy the idea and we give money. Abby has an amazing PDF file with a wonderful pattern and instructions. Thanks Abby for sharing your pickle! TUTORIAL HERE!
