I'm still managing to squeeze in some last minute crafty/sewing things. It's been especially fun to go drop little gift bags off (must be how Santa feels!)
 |
| Christmas Cards (I made use of some stamping/cardmaking supplies which was one of my favorite hobbies before quilting.) This snowy village stamp makes a very simple and quick (but lovely) card. It works out perfectly that the ink on the stamp doesn't apply a solid blue and so it looks like it's snowing! It would look so pretty with glitter, but my daughter says "glitter is the herpes of arts and crafts" and once I heard my neighbor complain about it so I don't use it anymore. |
 |
| Quick and simple gift tags. The pearl cotton thread makes a perfect lovely string for tying on the gift tag. |
 |
| A little sewn gift bag (on the left) holds the crystal angel book mark you'll see in a minute. |
 |
| Finished Potholder (put it in gift bag with a jar of Chocolate Chip cookie mix for a friend) |
 |
| Another potholder. |
 |
| The is the back of the previous pot holder. If you make quilt sandwiches to practice your free motion quilting, be sure to add a couple extra layers of batting and then you can sew on a binding and make a potholder. This star and loop design is so good for many projects. |
 |
| Another favorite prequilting hobbie (jewelry making). This is a book mark made for a friend. |
 |
| Don't you just love Swarovski crystals! I linked up with Inspiration Monday Party at http://www.ishouldbemoppingthefloor.com/ |
