Christmas Gifts

This purse pattern and tutorial by Nichole Mallalieu inspired me to make these.

Just by putting the zips on the longer side you have a pencil or make-up case.

Swap

I made this for the Christmas Tree Decoration Swap.
I also made 5 of my Thumb Pincushions for the Pincushion Swap (no picture) but you have seen them before.
It was great fun and one i will be happy to do again, All the swaps were different, all were great to see.

Christmas Swaps

At out Christmas Party at ACDA we had our Christmas Party, and two swaps happening.
The first one was a pin cushion swap, and the other was a Christmas tree Decoration swap.
How we did this was by having your name (if you entered of course!) into a plastic tub, then when your name was called out you took a package from the table and opened it. When all of it was done everyone stood up one at a time and showed off their new gift and the maker stood up as well, we all clapped and it was so much fun to do.
