Victorian Boy Snowman Caroler
This is the last family member in the Victorian Snow family made from The Annie Potter Presents The Snowbuddies from Snowville for my last swap. I will post a family photo for Wordless Wednesday next week.
You cannot tell from this picture, but with the addition of snow legs, the boy has a very different format than the previous members of the family. This was a bit more challenging to create than any of the other family members. While it made for an interesting effect, with the balance issues, I might not choose to do it in a second attempt.
I loved the newsboy style hat and may use this for other ami and doll projects.

Victorian Girl Snowman Caroler
This is the first child in the snowman family. She also comes from The Annie Potter Presents The Snowbuddies from Snowville and I do not have a pattern number for it.
As time was running out for the swap, I was trying to decide how far I would get with this project. Did I just make Mom and Dad? Would I finish the whole family? After finishing the Mother, there seemed to be time to approach the daughter and I was glad I took on the challenge.
The directions for the little girl varied from the larger snowmen and as you will see later, the boy took an even large design variation on the theme.
While I have boxes of Christmas decorations, I am very tempted to make a set of these for myself. They are very hard to resist.

Victorian Lady Snowman Caroler
This is the second snowman in my Victorian Caroling Family. The pattern for this family is located in Annie Potter Presents The Snowbuddies from Snowville and I do not have a pattern number for it.
I do not usually do much with fancy buttons, but for this project three of the snowmen required more than basic buttons, so I went through an assorted box I had bought a while back to see what unique options I had. I was fun to try to find something that would match.
