Christmas Presents: Scarfs of Many Colors

This year for some of my girl friends, I bought 6 in. of all different colors of fleece, in order to cut strips at the end to make them more like scarves! It was a quick but fun project, and very inexpensive too!!

I tried to get prints or colors that went with the gals personality.

All Stacked Up!!

They look so neat in black and white! :)

Christmas Gifts: Hand Made Fabric Cards

Every year I try to make home made cards. First of all because most of the time I can not find cards that actually say "Merry Christmas", second because they can be really expensive!! and Last because it means allot more to people when you make a card for them.

This year I did something a little different. I used about 8 different fabrics to create different designs for the front of the card.

I did this by cutting the fabric into squares, then cutting a piece of fusible interfacing to the size of the card. Then you place the squares in different designs and iron them to the interfacing. Then I sewed in a zig zag stitch the edges of the squares. then I sewed the piece to the card its self on the out side edge.



It was allot of fun to make these ones!! The one above I just took some scraps and did more of a rap quilt look!!

Here is a just a portion of the cards... I had already by this time sent out the ones that needed to mailed. I made about 30 this year!! And what a fun thing to work on while listening to Christmas music!!

For Christmas Hannah and I do a gift exchange. Just little things to bless each other. This year I put this together, with a few other things, but this is what I made, So its going on this blog!! :) When we were a bit younger, or at least up until about a month ago, we always talked about "when we or one of us have our license we should do this or that" Now that I have my licence, I thought it would be fun to put together coupons or ideas of things to do together as friends!! So here it is....

Christmas Presents: Cabled Fingerless Gloves

Right around Thanksgiving, my sister saw a picture of the green gloves I had just finished a couple of weeks before. She had mentioned that she REALLY liked them and that she wanted a pair in gray. So I took that bit of information and got to work.

I had one finished and one almost finished by the time Christmas came. So I wrapped the one and promised her I would finish the pair before the night was over.

I was able to finish them and give them to her completed!!

Here are some black and white photos!! 

There you have it, another present that I was able to make for a Christmas present!! (Sorry I am alittle behind on posts, hopefully I will get all caught up soon!!)
