Colorful Christmas News : :

This weekend there wasn't much time for sewing, except for the little bit of time I found late Saturday night to begin one last Christmas sewing project. I had stashed a few more holiday prints last week -- some Colorful Christmas, along with a some Hooty Hoot Jacks. All are Riley Blake, all from The Little Fabric Shop!

I hope to make up a few little bags for my son Jacob with most of these. He is a collector of all sorts of little things and I think he would especially like these Jacks fabrics!

I'm still deciding what to do with my colorful Christmas dresden? I scrapped my original plan and now I am thinking a large floor pillow would be fun to have. I'll be sure to show what this becomes later in the week, or possibly tomorrow!

These little hands will be here for just three weeks! I plan to squeeze and hold and tickle and love on this little girl as much as I can up until that very last moment!! Little hands, there's nothing better!

  10. Ah, those colorful neckties – I just love those! I will get my kid one of those and dress him up for Christmas. I have to convince my clients to hold their horses and allow me a little more time for Writing Great Product Descriptions – I mean, how can you do great when you are not feeling great? Spending Christmas with my family will definitely make me feel great – and that’s what I need in order to do a great job. I am getting a few of those neckties for my kid. Merry Christmas, ya'll.
