Thank you gifts

It was cold, snowing, raining and the wind was blowing today. That made it a perfect day to do some sewing. I needed to make some gifts for family and friends. So this afternoon I got busy and made the 5 hot pads. Now to get them in the mail.

They have names!!

From left to right. Ettie Confetti, Meall Green, Sister Sue, and Treifica turquoise.
They are all sisters. they love to have a good time. They also love to shop at fabric shops.

Scrappy Chics

I have finished my Scrappy Chic's doll trade for F.A.T. yahoo group.
All I have left to do is make a label and give them each a name I used some of my Jenny Raymond squares I had from a project I never finished . Everything is from scraps of other projects I have done. My ladies are a little on the wild side. They love to have fun!!!

trade finished

I finally finished the Eggs-traordinary chicken trade. In this trade we had a theme of chickens and eggs.
I did the chicken wall hanging and a hot pad and 2 coasters to match.
I found some chocolate chicks. We all like chocolate!!
There is a frig magnet and a bag of chicken feed or if you like you can micro wave it and put on a sore joint or neck. It's full of corn.
I found some Cocks comb and hens and chicks seeds.
It's been fun to think of chicken and egg stuff.

My next trade! A work in progress

This chicken is for an Eggs-traodinary Chicken Trade in one of my groups. I haven't figured out what else I am doing for this yet, But I have a start!! The them is eggs and chickens.

I got this chicken from Fat Cats Patterns. It was free. My favorite kind. Thank you Sindy Rodenmayer for the pattern.

I made these for a trade. 3 to trade and 1 to keep for me. It's called Taking Flight Journal wings.
This is the back . with sayings on the velum.

I got this in my 4 leaf clover exchange. I love to get surprises in the mail.

I love the ladybug bag. It will be nice to carry things in my purse.

I have a secret sister in one of me groups and I got all this in the mail today. What a nice SS!

We get a new one every 3 months. so this is the last she will be sending me.

I got 3 bookmarks done.

Yes I got something done. the 3 bookmarks. One is for a small trade and the others will be used for small gifts when needed. This is my trade in Sew Good Friends trade group.
