Instead of xmas shopping

Here are a few projects I have done during the last month. It is hard to tell but the black and white purse has a bow in the front. I gave it to a friend for her b-day. I made one for me but the fabric has this cute owl on it. I'll try and remember to post a pic. The wallet has the same black and white on the inside with 2 pockets for cards or cash.

I tried to make a tote but lined it with a pocket. My grandmother loved it so I gave it to her. I am not sure if that is a good thing or not. ( Not the giving it away but my grandmother loving it)

I didn't make the pants but added the ruffle and knee pads. Hannah is the model.

This is the diaper bag I made. I also made a changing pad with the same outside fabric. It is hard to tell but the inside fabric is different and there are lots of pockets inside. I use it everyday. So far, I really like it.

Here are some pants I made for Hannah. I added the fabric on the bottom and put the circles on the knees.

Heres some pic's my sister took of some projects I have been working on. My niece is the model. She looks great.

Napkins

I'm going green with cloth napkins. Instead of throwing away paper napkins I will try cloth. I put a small basket in the laundry room to throw them into and I can wash them once/week. I even made one for my son. If you cannot tell from the pic, it is spider man. I will have to find some fun kid prints and make him a few.

This is a cloth grocery sack. I love it. I have gotten so many complements at the store. It really is sturdy and I like that I can wash it if it gets soiled. I did sew the handles all the way down the bag. I think it looks nicer and probably adds support.

I started making bibs for my friends having babies. It has been fun to find differnet fabric patterns. Not so baby. Here's one I actually made for my daughter.
