EEEEKKK! Christmas is coming!

Sometimes I just need a break from sewing, so I play with paper. I got some new punches, and made a little banner for a friend's baby. Isn't is sweet?

 I bought some German glass-glitter from  Glitter your world  and can't find enough ways to use it! It is so sparklely!
 I sold a Christmas Stocking from my new Artfire shop and from Etsy, got an order for three more, and  have to finish my grandson's.

Then I looked at my calendar to book our annual trip to Nevada City's Victorian Christmas, and went into a major panic attack (just what I need, which is another story in itself) EEEEEEKKKK! There is only a few more weeks left before Christmas! I am so far behind this year it is ridiculous! Were are all of those little elves when you need them?
Gotta run..... talk to you later! Have a great and productive week everyone!

 Woo Hoo! Have a great weekend!

Custom order FINISHED!!!

I had a great custom order to work on and finally finished! My customer had some fabric she wanted me to use for sentimental reasons.  Its actually harder, having a little freedom, than making something just to please ME! I really agonized over this, hoping she liked the ideas I came up with. I'll be delivering the order this afternoon, wish me luck!!! Here are the pics

All 5 bags (the tote on the bottom left is reversible)

Leather pocket and flower parts

Kids lunch totes with Chalkboard fabric for personal messages

The tote is the reverse side 

 

 

                                                     

 I delivered the order halfway thru writing this, and she was really pleased! She ordered 2 Christmas stockings and an I- phone bag too! Thank you, Lee and Marie!
Back to work...........
