Christmas bazaar

We moved to a church and are remodeling it. My quilting studio is packed along with a million other things. So I'm back to small projects done on the kitchen table. These are for our guilds booth, hope these sell. Any other suggestions for small items that can be done on a kitchen table?

pinterest and U-tube has really cute items. I also like to google images on Christmas ornaments and decorations. Lots of things come up for inspiration.

By the way, I forgot to tell you that I love your flower petal ornaments. They are really nice. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice assortment!

PaperPrincess 10-27-2015 11:39 AM

They all look great. I love those 'elf' boots with the curly toes!

QUILTNMO 10-27-2015 11:44 AM

Very nice!!!

Cute projects! The $ store hand towel and a potholder make cute button on towels for the stove handle. You find the pot holder with a center loop, sew it on the towel at the half mark and put a button on for the loop. Google it and a tutorial will probably come up.

Bowl pot holders are very popular at craft sales

I love your projects. There are many items you could make. I made many of the folded ornaments such as you made only I used the state college team colors

Also in this picture are styrofoam balls where I glued a collage of collegiate fabric pieces and then used mod podge on them.

You can do fabric boxes which are simple and quick.

Pot holders are also popular and quick

Then there is little mug rugs

Also, I forgot to mention if you cover the petal ornaments with Mod Podge, it gives them the look of leather and makes them much more durable.

Sorry this is so long, however, I love doing Christmas gifts for many friends and family. Lastly, this is one I am doing for work this year

Don't have any pictures of mine yet but here is the link. I have made 28 so far using team material and CHRISTmas material for the scarf and decorating the hats. These sock snowmen are quick and easy and turn out great;

they're all very pretty!, I love christmas Item and things! thanks for sharing1:eek:<3

Making potholders using scraps with earth tones mixed with greens and other Christmas colors. Table runners are great gifts as well. Last year, before moving, I made one for each of my children. When finished, I used free motion signature. They said that made them special. Another year, using scraps, I made quilted Christmas cards for all my friends and pen-pals. I cut and sewed blocked and rectangular scraps as well as making a (what I found out later) was a Log Cabin design. Once I sewed the blocks/etc together, I measured them against the cards I planned to use. Cutting with rotary cutter cut down time to fit the designs to the card. Then sewed directly onto Christmas face cards saved from previous years. Some of the cards had decorative machine stitching but you have to be careful so needle doesn't cut through the paper. Found wide zigzag and straight stitching worked the best. Enjoy!

lovely projects. Love you fabrics too.

GagaSmith 10-29-2015 01:52 PM

These coasters are quick and easy. What she doesn't show is you can open up the pieces of fabric and the bottom of a stemware glass will fit inside. Very cute.

Also, single Dresden plate blocks or hexagon blocks are great to use as candle mats.
