WIP Wednesday Review:
#1: Saavy Seasons Swap
I can't remember if I already admitted this to you, my bloggy followers, but I signed up for another swap haha. I know I know, I am an idiot. I wish I would not have because I am running out of time on other projects that are more important but o well... at least I am almost done!
Here is the pillow cover I made my partner because everyone thought it was a cuter pillow than square table runner:
And here is the start of the matching potholders because she wanted something for the kitchen originally - just need to finish the binding this weekend and I will be DONE:
#2: I have been playing with applique lately and here is what I have created so far:
2 Winter Hoop Ornaments - although I still have no idea how to finish them off in the back - so if you know please share! (Sorry for the blurry pictures... will replace them with better ones when I have time)
Blue Bear for Lukas - might embroider our names on them |
Orange bear for me - she just did not want to wear pink :) |
#3: Continuing on my applique fun - I made a "Christmas Bat" pillow for my mom - here is the start of that:
Long story on the "Christmas Bat" concept... mom will appreciate it tho for sure :)
#4: And last but not least, I finally made a Dresden!
This was supposed to be folded in half and used as a kindle case for my mom but it was not quite wide enough. Not sure if I can fix it/add to it at this point but we shall see
#5: O yea, and I am ALMOST done with a baby blanket for my sister-in-law who had a baby towards the end of October. Hoping to get that finished this weekend and mailed out soon thereafter - will show pictures once that goes in the mail
We are heading to Germany for Christmas so I have 1 week less to complete Christmas presents than originally anticipated so I am super duper behind schedule. Hoping to get some things done in the next few weeks but don't expect a lot of pictures or updates because I have a feeling sneaky people will be browsing my blog to get a peek :) Will post lots of pics before we leave for Christmas vacation tho!
Until the next time - Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Good luck on your Winter/Holiday crafty projects and remember to enjoy the season!!
See what everyone else is making at
