Almost last minute.

I have finished the last of the handmade Christmas gifts for this year.

Above is an apron for my niece. My model was a little reluctant.

The final gift is a purse. I used a pattern I had not tried before. It turned out fairly well.

This was really a nice easy apron to put together. I used Three coordinating fabrics instead of just one print. The horizontal strip turned out fairly well but I don't think I would use it for the skirt if I made the apron again.

Summer Sassy Apron Swap Recieved

Above is the Apron I received in the Summer Sassy Apron Swap. A nice summery Red, White and Blue. I love the Ruffly bottom section and the Red rickrack. Thank you, Chris.

Chirs also sent a vintage apron, in place of the summer drink recipe. I love the tulips!

I picked up these happy little Bowls at the thrift a while back. I finally made small 4.5 inch bean bags for them. I think the idea is to lay them face down and try to flip them over. The box has gone missing( I think it got wet). They did not have any bean bags when I found them. But I know the box said it was a bean bag game. I wish I had written down the name of the toy or the directions.
