Default Latest non-quilting project

A very dear friend of mine made me a "lap tray" with a picture frame and used cuttings from magazines to depict things that reminded her of me, our fun times together, my favorite things.....etc. I loved it so much I thought it would be a great thing to make as Christmas gifts for 2 friends on mine. I bought 2 unfinished frames so that I could paint them the color I wanted them. The pink one if for my friend that taught me how to quilt. The green one is for a mutual friend of the one the pink one if for and me. She crochets and knits for charities. The only thing I have left to do is add the handles.
