I made myself a little roll up caddy to keep paintbrushes in.

The Christmas Tree

Every year we let our guests trim our tree, with ornaments they make from the pipe cleaners (aka chenille strips) we supply.

Baby presents!

I made a couple of pairs of little booties and a sign for the door and I commissioned my mother to make the baby a bib!

B is for bird

B is for beaver.  Another letter, a messy applique.

Playing with letters

I decided to play around with some letters, and I thought I’d start with the first letter, A.  It is embroidered on the back of a piece of towel, 5″x 5″.

The plural of talisman is talismans

and yet, I can’t help but think of a talisman as a man, so I made a little talisman.  He’s just under 5″ tall.  And if I make more, I will call them talismen.

A little talisman

I’m not entirely sure what one does with a talisman, but as a good luck charm I think it beats a rabbit’s foot, no bunnies are harmed.  It also uses up some of those scraps you have lying around.  This one is made from a piece of driftwood.
