Felt Partridge Ornament

I think this is such a cute little ornament. Wouldn't it be fun to have a small Christmas tree with just felt ornaments on it?!

Ok, so I'm doing a craft exchange in a couple weeks and I'm thinking about making these. Wouldn't that be so fun to receive.

Found this great project on Retro Mama, there is a tutorial and pattern and all the stuff you ned to know.
