Sew-n-tell Christmas Edition!

Hey Everyone!!! Sew-n-tell is back over at Amys Blog. I have been waiting to post about all the Christmas presents i have made until now so i can share them with everyone, and to make sure everyone has opened their gifts from me!

First i made Marylou the Emmeline Apron, When i bought the pattern and showed it to her she told me that she wanted one for Christmas, i think she may have been kidding because she asked me if i wanted her to go and buy the fabric. Well surprise, i made it for her, and i picked out the fabric all myself. She told me that she really likes it, and uses it all time!

Then I made Garrett's Sister Lauren an origami organizer from the one yard wonders book that we both got for Christmas last year. I made it for her because she thought it looked too complicated, and i had already made one for myself. I made hers a little smaller though, because i didn't have the right size interfacing.



I also made her some reusable snack bags. She works in 2 schools now as a SLP, and i thought that these would be great additions to her lunch box, and to her wallet, so she doesn't have to keep buying plastic baggies!


For my Aunt and Garrett's Mother I made folding shopping totes from heather baileys pattern. I really like this totes, and i think they did too!! With some Christmas gift money i bought some fabric to make two for myself!!




I also made my Nana a Christmas table runner, but i guess i forgot to take a picture of that!! Oh well when i get one i will put it up.

I hope you all enjoyed my Christmas sew-n-tell Make sure to hop on over to Amy's blog to check other finishes!

And just a side note....Garrett and I have been Dating for 9 years this January 9th, WOW, I might do a little something on here to look back on those 9 years either Sunday or sometime on Monday! So come on back for that!!


Peace & Love J-me
