New Year's Eve

It is New Year's Eve and I am home alone. My pork, sauerkraut and mashed potatoes dinner will be ready to eat soon. I am looking forward to this traditional meal.

Snow Flake Stocking

This is the stocking I made this year for the QuiltChat swap. It went to Sharon/Purply in Texas.

Merry Christmas 2010

This is Sara with the doll, etc. that I gave her.

Merry Christmas

I am going to miss these two little dolls. I will be taking them to their new "mamas" this afternoon - Hannah and Sara, little Eritrean girls. I had soooooooooo much fun making the little quilts and bedding for them.

Oh, What a Doll!

This is a doll I just finished making. She is a gift for a friend. Her name is Merry. She is a bit eccentric.

Stocking Swap Opening

I opened my stocking this morning at the swap opening. My stocking was from Purply / Sharon in Texas. Here are a couple of photos. The stocking is quilted and I received lots of nice goodies with it as you can see in one photo.

Bottle Bags

I made these bottle bags to take out to the airport gift shop tomorrow. They are made of red polar fleece. The owner requested some bags for wine bottles. I would like to sew up more, but I don't know if I will have time.

Now 28 neck warmers

My stack of fleece neck warmers has grown to 28. See!!! I think two of them might be too small except for a little kid.

14 Neck Warmers

I made these neck warmers in the last few days. They are made out of fleece. They will be nice and warm to wear.

Christmas Sewing

I have quite a bit of sewing I want to finsh before Christmas. Do you hear my sewing machine motor humming? I made eight neck warmers. I have more cut and waiting to be sewn - some to give as gifts and others to take to the airport gift shop. I would like to complete 25 or 30. I have more work to do the the dish towel tops. Instead of crocheting them, I use fabric and velcro. My hairdresser asked me to make 12 for her. I need to make some wine bags for the gift shop. Also, on my list are two little doll quilts. Oh...and some placemats. I better get going. Christmas will be here soon.

Dolls in Baskets

I found these cute little dolls at Target and the baskets at Joann's. I made little mattresses and flannel blankets for them. If I have time I will make small pieced quilts as well. Later. I am planning to give them to the two little Eritrean girls who attend my church here in Twin Falls.
