More Snippet Fun

I’m at the point of the semester where mindless sewing has enormous appeal.  Well, I had a bunch of cut up snippets left from earlier projects, so I thought I’d make up more ornaments.  Using the GO! to cut them, of course.  A star and a bird.

And a tree and a dog.

I love making these up.  They are just so darn cute!

And I still have more snippets left!  I see another batch coming.  These, too, got listed on my Etsy shop. 

Meanwhile, I do have another project to finish over the next few days since I want it out for Thanksgiving.  Another drunkard’s path table runner.  I’m hoping have it quilted by the end of Monday, so I should (fingers crossed) have pictures early next week. 

How about you?  Do you have holiday sewing projects stacking up?

More Bookmarks

A couple more of those very sweet and pretty ones.

And then I pulled out some very bright and fun leftover charm squares as well.

I’ve got a lot more than I’m showing here.  I get going on a roll when it’s these little mindless projects.  So soothing when the start of the end of the semester madness is just beginning!

These went up in my Etsy shop as well.  I’m thinking in my next run of these I’m going to play with some Kaffe Fasset prints.  Because what doesn’t look good done up in Fasset?

The Latest Wee Thing

Once again, it is time to start thinking about those bookmarks I make for family and friends each year for Christmas.  I played around this morning and came up with these.

I’m still in my use it up mode, so I decided to try and use up some of the left over charm squares I have lying about.  Aren’t these fabrics just so pretty?

I pieced a little bit for the backing.

Very sweet. 

Not exactly manly for the Y chromosome crowd.  Batiks might be the ticket.  Batiks in manly colors.  We’ll see.  Meanwhile, these make me happy.

I made more than the two shown, so I already have extra on this type.  This pair just got listed in my Etsy Shop Daisy Fair (just in case anyone is so moved).

Meanwhile, sometime in the next few weeks I’ll do up a little tutorial on these – though they are so easy you don’t really need one.  Never the less.  Why not?

Oh, and here’s the Xmas ornaments on a darker background.  A little better?
