New Headbands

This week I have completed 36 new headbands.  After a few trips back to the drawing table, I've perfected my pattern and tweeked the design and I am thrilled with the result.  I've used a lot of different coordinating and contrasting color palettes of yummy fabrics.  There are three different styles, but I've only taken pictures of one thus far.

Now, I'll tag them and get them packed for the show!  And then - on to something else.....  Stay tuned....

Snowman Tissue Case

This week I made some Snowman Tissue Cases.  I really like this pattern because it has a zipper to keep it closed.  He holds a pack of purse sized Kleenex tissues perfectly snug!

Penguin Zipper Bag

I just put the finishing touches on my new Penguin Zipper Bags.  My Santa Zipper Bag now has a friend.  I've made almost a dozen of these so far.  He measures 4-1/2" wide x 6-3/4" high.

Hand Towel with Applique and Monogram

I finished the Santa Zipper Bags today and have moved on to another project.  I found a fun design for an appliqued Christmas ornament with a monogram.  So, I tried it on a hand towel

Cantalopes from My Garden!

After months of battling the ground hog and deer - I finally have something to harvest from my garden!  I'm so proud of these cantalopes!!  When we left for vacation a few weeks ago, my garden was full of beautiful tomato plants, pepper plants and two cantalope plants.  Well, when we returned, the deer had eaten every leaf and bloom from the vegetable plants and had eaten all the leaves from the cantalope vines - but they left the cantalope melons alone - go figure.  There are about eight more melons out there that need to ripen.  I hope Mr. Groundhog doesn't come for dinner in the meantime.....

Monogrammed Key Chain

I'm sharing something new!  Monogrammed Key Chains. 

 I've kept with a black and white fabric palet and used pink and green thread.
