A December Finish and a Lost Set

 Hello There!

I finished these mittens just in time for them to go on the tree!  This is my third set to have stitched up!

This was my first set.
My second set is lost...
Sadly, I misplace this set....
But, as I tell my husband, "They'll turn up!"
I hope....😏

I also finished some Christmas gifts!
This apron is for my sister - her creativity is in the kitchen.
I made this small table topper for Mama's new home in San Diego using  Melva Loves Scraps Shoo Fly block pattern for the center.  
I simply added borders, binding and presto!  Thank you, Melva!
These oh so basic gift bags finished off my Christmas sewing for the week!

Take good care!

Catching Up and Moving Forward

Hello There! 

Life has been a bit hectic since I last posted, but now it's very slow.  Since July I've been making more frequent trips to El Paso to help take care of my parents, at times spending a night or two with them.  In late September, they along with my sister and her husband relocated to San Diego.  Alas, how I miss them!  

In the interim since my last post, I finished this mitten set, 


and this set!

I'm now stitching up this set.  
We went to Mama's house to clean out her pantry
and I found this tray there.
I brought it home.
Reminds me of her.  

Even though the month is almost over, I'll be choosing the
annual Christmas gifts to make for my granchildren.
I'm way behind schedule,
but I'm sure I'll be able to make them something they'll enjoy!

Take good care and Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate!
