Makin' Prezzies

I know Christmas is in a few weeks, but around here I am still dealing with birthdays! So I wanted to show you some of the birthday gifts I've been working on. I have already given away two of the bags to my November birthday friends and still have one left. I won't need to send it until January though. It is Helen's pattern.

I changed the one in the middle bag to a pirate theme cause it was for my friend and teacher at our local high school and we are the Pirates. (Oh, and by the way, we just took state in football...go Pirates!) I filled it with lotion, candy, soup, Tylenol and a few other essentials for a 6 hour kit. (You know instead of a 72hr. kit. LOL)



And here are some needle cases I made. I was on a roll...I just love Anni Down's book, Simple Pleasures. She has oodles of patterns in the book along with ideas on how to use them. I will be using this book a lot!



I am ready to start on my Christmas gifties! Jingle Jingle!

One added note: I can reveal my Stitchers Angel recipient....Susana of Susan Patch. My gifties went all the way to Spain!

Piece & Love,
Dawn
