Finally! Christmas is over and now I can post the pictures of what I made. Oh, don't get excited, they're not all that fabulous.
A friend of mine asked me to make a bathrobe for her son. Something warm and wonderful. He just loved this fabric!
My sister told me that her husband had worn out his bathrobe, so I made this one for him.
Next in line, I made tote bags for my sister and nieces. This is the one for my sister. She's a nurse, so when I saw the nurse hat print, I couldn't resist. It's one of those totes that fold up into its own pocket. The pocket is the print with animals on it.
Here are the tote bags for my nieces. I found the fabric first, decided to do tote bags, then made custom-made zipper pulls, my one and (so far) only foray into beading. It was fun, but I don't see myself making jewelry. The ocassional zipper pull will be fine.
So, that was Christmas 2011. I hope you enjoyed it!
What a productive Christmas you had. And all great gifts. You've certainly got a talent, "Lady-Jane". Couldn't quite make out the fabric in the first bathrobe, but it looks like a Wolf design. Right? No wonder he was thrilled.
