Yesterday I took the afternoon off! Actually, the company I work for gave us an afternoon off of our pick before the holiday to finish up our shopping. Pretty nice perk. Since I am deep in the midst of my Frugal Yet Fabulous Holidays, I turned the shopping into sewing... well after I took a nap first.
It was an assembly line. I had cut out all the fabric ahead of time, so all I needed to do was sew and assemble. I got a lot done - much of the sewing is complete and all the items pinned, awaiting only one more line of stitching and a button.
Sorry, can't show you much more pictures or the finished project. The pattern is super secret. I will share more when I can. Promise.
Tonight, I hope to either finish these pieces up or spend a little time stitching my favorite ice skate ornaments. This time in red felt.
I'd love to know what became of these!
