Well I don't know about you but, "I hear those Sleigh Bells ringing a tune!". I soooo love all the traditions and smells and magic that Christmas Time brings. Although I do feel ever so unready for the big day. Yep, I've gotta get crackin!
This is just the best time of the year. My heart swells and I tend to tear up over the kindness of others. The Festival of the Trees was great and my son and I have the best time going each year. Just makes me want to decorate, decorate, decorate! Ok, to help me with this urge, I went down stairs and decorated a table. I felt better. NOW to do it at home!
I've been sewing, have you? I would tell you what I've been sewing but, my kids read this blog and I'm not letting the "Elf" out of the bag!
Some of you have had some interest in the Burlap Stocking I made. We will have some basic instructions written up today. Also we have the lace here for it. Leesa was kind enough to get it while she was in Arizona. Yea!!
We have buttons and fabric and Trims ! |
My most favorite type of sewing is when I can just create. Make it up as I go. You know how you can see something and then all of a sudden those creative juices start flowing and you start gathering supplies and Ideas keep coming? Well before you know it ....... Wa-La.. presto, Burlap Stocking is made! It doesn't matter if it's a quilt or a garment. Ok, so sometimes the out come is a bit scary. Sometimes.......it was a really nifty idea. Burlap is soooooo very in this year. And Sew fun to play with. And here we all thought it was just a gunny sack!
Many of you have seen or possibly own one of the Super Cute USB drives. Mostly we think of using them only if we have an embroidery machine for storing our designs. But, what a perfect tool for storing quilt patterns or any inspirational sewing, crafting, scrap booking thought we might have.
Way to many times I remember something I have seen on Pinterest and for the life of me, I can't find it when I need it. Sew having a USB drive that looks like sewing is my answer! Otherwise I was plugging in every darn one I own and that is a hassle! Problem solved. NOW to help solve yours.....We will have these Handy Dandy USB drives. on sale , Reg. $23.99 NOW through Christmas $14.50 each.
My daughter wants the Owl and I want the Tape Measure. Hummmm which one will you choose? |
