Tying up loose ends

Hello everybody!
I have a few projects finished in preparation on our move ( we still don't know exactly when or where yet... dontcha love the military!)

I picked up this table cloth for $2 and added a remnant of snowflake fabric as binding. I also used up a 1/2 spool of green variegated thread and several partially full bobbins of random colors.


I had fun using the different decorative stitches on my machine.


I also made another little portable pincushion to go with the cathedral window quilt I am working on.



I picked up some short little applique pins to make working with all the turned over sides easier on my hands.


I've made quite a bit of progress on this one lately. This is only about 1/4 of the row I have almost finished. It finishes about 80" long, I don't know how many of these rows I will make. We'll see!


Here is a finished but un-decorated present for Christmas.


There's a tablecloth, place mats, a table runner and napkins with rings.

I made or altered everything, down to the napkin rings.


I had fun with the napkin rings.


I also had fun with the macro setting on the camera while I had some beads out.


So Pretty!

Christmas Spoiler-palooza!

I am getting too backlogged with pictures of Christmas gifts and other craftiness, so I decided to post them all with no description, so at least you won't know who the gifts are for...

Here goes!
