Christmas Wrapping




I made some cute Christmas gift bags and wallets. Here's just a couple of them. The little wallets are made from felt. The gift bags are made from jeans. I just machine appliqued pieces from Christmas fabric onto them. My goal is to create the gift wrap as I complete each gift, so I won't be doing the last-minute, gift-wrap marathon this year.

In Between


In between the Christmas sewing, I made a mini Ploomer bag from a pair of jeans. It really turned out cute. Pockets outside, and of course inside too.

Studio Fun




As I continue the never-ending task of organizing my studio, I added something fun. Check out the framed flowers. Bright colors. Fun. Fun. Fun.



I also found a great way to organize and display my handbags. Instead of 20-someodd bags draped over Minnie Mannequin, which makes getting to the one I want a huge problem as it always seems to be the bottom one, I found these great cascades that hang atop my studio door. Easy to get to each bag, and it's quite a nice display.
