Friday Night Sew-In Goodies

Hey!

So I FINALLY got some Christmas sewing done.

I was so happy that another

Friday Night Sew-In

was taking place in December.

It gives me a great excuse to

'get my sew on'.

:o)

I was able to complete one Christmas gift.

This great purse by Melissa of 100 Billion Stars.

You can find the pattern here.

I seriously love making this bag.

I hope Melissa never gets tired of my bragging her up.

But she is just so inspring.

The little pouch is a pattern by Atkinson Designs

called Cash and Carry.

Remember back when when I was going to rate

projects by the number of chocolates I either ate,

or wanted to eat?

Okay...if Iwould have had

 a bag of chocolates in my sewing room,

they would be

G

O

N

E

No lie.

Period.

I broke 2 needles putting the zipper in that little pouch.

And the funny thing is,

I have made this bag a couple times before.

I had a zipper brainfart.

Here's another close up of the bag,

just because I love it.

And another......

And if you're looking closely,

yes, that is a button of Rudy Giuliani

on the shelf.

Even autographed.

That's all I'll say about that.

I'll just keep y'all guessing.

:o)

I did make this pillow too,

though not during the Friday Night Sew-In.

I made it to sell at the local craft store.

The total Diva pillow.

Just like the creator.......

No comments please.

So that was my Friday night.

You know, when I was younger,

I would have never, EVER pictured myself

sitting home on a Friday night playing with fabric.

I had too many people to see and too many parties to go to!

Where is that girl?

Safe with her sewing machine...

and very grateful.

:o)

Until the next adventure,

KEEP SMILING!
