This week, I should be receiving fabric from a customer that wants a x-large throw made to give as a Christmas gift... (Yes, short notice!) So I have been trying to work on some of my own gifts to give, to get them out of the way... :o)
I made these two little wool/felt wallhangings. They measure about 5" x 6", with a small cinnamon stick for a rod. :o) Beads that I had on hand made the "ornaments" with a jingle bell for a tree topper... :o) My own little design! :o)
This is Sara bear! She is for my mom for Christmas. She still needs to be aged with some stain, plus some ribbon or flowers added. Laurie at Indulge Your Shelf is going to make me a special hang-tag for Sara. (By the way, be sure to visit Laurie HERE - she is having an awesome give-away!) This bear stands about 8.5" tall. Sara was made from a kit from The Old PincushionEtsy shop.
And last but not least, just a peek... This is going to a dear friend, but she reads this blog, so I can't have her seeing the whole thing, it has a long journey across the ocean, so I need to get it mailed this week!
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. Ours was peaceful... :o) This week won't be as peaceful: Jim has his follow-up appointment at the pulmonary specialist Wednesday, and the local Christmas parade is Wednesday night, and David broke his glasses so I need to get him an appointment... And, and, and... :o) Have a great week!
You did not already finish Sara bear! Oh my goodness, you are one quick sewer/artist! She is adorable! You put me to shame! Your little trees are cute! And your reader will be in heaven with her quilt -- I can speak from experience!

Do not be anxious in anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

Your sneak peek looks gorgeous. Someone is going to be very lucky indeed. I like your little trees too. Great creation.
Extra busy at the busiest time of the year--isn't that the way it goes? You're getting a lot done, but don't forget "Angela" time!
