This may be a year they only get the hand made item of ornaments from grandma. Just at a loss for them.

I'm making coaster sets with fabric boxes for gifts this year, I had intended to have these done over the last Virtual Quilting Weekend but after finishing the 5 aprons I was working on, I had a request for 4 more. I'm totally aproned-out now. lol I did two tester coasters and cut everything for the others, the fabric in front will be for the boxes to put them in. Since they're heading up to the frosty north I figure they'll remind folks that Spring indeed will be coming.

I only wish! Had knee replacement Sept 2nd then fell 5 days later & broke my femur on the same leg. Now can't walk until after Christmas! My sewing room is upstairs & a million miles away. :(

I'm going to keep it simple this year. Ever year I work hard to make something for everyone, but no one seems to want handmade gifts. I found this on Pinterest.

Great idea Cari. I have only one pack 'n' play sheet.
Sewgranny1: WOW. Gorgeous quilts and lots of ideas. Want to adopt me : ) I am making a set of 25" Raggedy Ann and Andy for my one month old DGD. Her mom always loved them so she is getting them a little late : ) Also plan on making two name banners, approx. 5' x 18" for the two grandsons: 3 yrs. in Nov. and 3 yrs. in Feb. They will have a train theme with engine, three flat cars and a caboose. Each flat car will hold a letter of their name (ELI & ZAN) I made one for my DGD when she knew her letters but not how to spell her name. It is here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...h-t191130.html It still hangs above her bed at almost seven years old. Sew much to do................sew little time! |
I wish I could see the poem for the little bag of money. I would love to give my sons a bag of money! hehehe!

Did you design the letters, or was there a pattern? My Granddaughter's name is Emelia, and she would love something like this banner!
