Fa la la! There are some things about the holiday season that I always enjoy. Actually lots of things but one of the big ones is creating gifts for my friends and family. This year I think there will be even more of that as it can be pretty cost effective too.
My sister and I have scheduled several "crafting" days with my mom. That is where I am headed today so if you don't see me when you stop by to visit today...that's where I am. I have lots of projects going around my house but here are a couple of things we are working on today. One is a fabric covered clothesline bag and the other is a set of fabric bowls. They are beautiful and I think will make some nice gifts.
I'll be posting pictures when we are finished and I'll be visiting later this afternoon.

Love the bags. Great color choices. I wish I had a sister close by to have crafting days with. Enjoy!
What a great time I'm sure you're all having and can't wait to see your finished items. I sure wish I was handy at making things sure would save a lot of money, but I don't think the grand kids would be very appreciative of those type things.
I love doing home made gifts. Less expensive and lots of fun making them. Can't wait to see your pictures. Love the ones you have here.
I can't wait to see what you've made!
Looking forward to seeing your projects!
I used to be more creative when it came to gifts. Not so much needlwork stuff but I used to make calendars and cards, using photos and Photoshop. I don't know why I don't do that anymore . . .
I can't wait to see what ya'll do!
I would like to find the directions to that clothesline bag, I have the clothesline 100ft of it all covered and ready to go. Is there a website with directions that are free?
Since had absolutely NO domestic or craft-like skills I am always amazed at the stuff other people make - it's magic to me. I like the idea of the fabric bowls - I like things I can put other things in...
Put me down for one of those bags pls ;)
I wish I had the time, I live vicariously through Martha Stewart. Sad, huh?
I'm squishing my holiday crafts in here and there (between work and custom orders for my Etsy shop). I love the bag, it's beautiful!
I have always wished I was creative and crafty and could make things. But sadly I cannot. I'm glad you can! Love the bag!
What is a fabric bowl? You lost me!
Handmade gifts are the best. Can't wait to see how yours turn out!
That must be fun making those. I always remember things like that when they are given to me. That's the best part of it.
