    Default Laundry Gift for my friend.

    Today I surprised my dear friend with a surprise birthday party at one of her favorite restaurants. She was surprised right up until we went to sit down. Three other friends joined us.

    My friend hangs her clothes outdoors even throughout the winter so I decided to make her a clothespin hanger. She loved it. I also made her a fabric matching card to go along with her present.

    I wish I could hang my clothes outside but there is too much agriculture dust here. Your present is so cute.

    This is so cute! It reminded me of my grandmother's clothespin bag. I'm pretty certain that hers, was a toddler sized dress belonging to one of my aunts. How that must have brought back wonderful memories every time she hung out the clothes on the line. Thanks for sharing!

    Thank you for your kind comments. I admire my friend so much. She is faithful to hang all of her laundry up. She has 3 different kinds of arthritis and severe back problems yet she doesn't skip a beat when it comes to her laundry.
