More key fobs

Yes more of the same! I got 50 of the hard ware for the key fobs. So yes I am on a kick!! I like to make pretty ones but the guys in my life don't like to carry pretty key rings!!
I got the belting scraps for under $3.00 for 3 yards when I got the hard ware.
Have I said I love my sewing machine??

Happy New Year!!

It's A new year and yes I got something done yesterday!! It's a step in the right direction!!It's a UFO!! A real one . Someone gave the fan's to Jennie and she sent them to me to finish. I put them on a W on W and used rick rack on the top and bottom of the fans. This will be in the mail today for DD Jennie to quilt for a little girl. I hope to get more sewing time in the next year!! In Quilt Art Magazine gift issue this last Christmas I saw these Key fobs.
So I got on the Internet and found some hard ware and this is the first one I have done. I couldn't sleep last night so I got out my little scrap box and found pinks and browns.
It will be in the box Jennie!!
I think they will make nice little gifts for everyone.
It's a good way to use up all the little scraps from other thing.

Sleep!!

I have been making sleep mask for friends and family. I am one of those people that gets up with the Sun. Even a little light and I am up and wide a wake. I made one for my self and liked it so now every one is getting one.
I like using my darker Batiks for them . It also gives me a chance to practice my free motion quilting.

OH Little Christmas tree!

My DA Gladys and I have a small 4' tree. I thought we needed a little Christmas cheer. This isn't the best photo but it will give you all a idea of all the candle Matt's I have been making.
I think this is the last of them? They make nice little gifts with the candle.

Sewing Just a little!

I am sending this to DD Jennie today and thought to take a photo first. I embroidered it in Florida and found it while looking for some other things. I have been making candle Matt's in various fabrics and sending them out as fast as I get them done. I got a late start on Christmas sewing this year .

Happy B-Day Jennie!

Happy Birthday DD Jennie!! This will be in the mail in time for the big day! DDJ ask me to make her a small covered note book with a small date book in it, for her so this is it! The date book will fit in side so it will be easy to carry in a hand bag. I wish I had put a pen holder in it but she can clip it to the inside I think.
