I cannot believe it is November already - I am once again in a panic because, like you, I know Christmas is right around the corner. I am working down my Christmas list every spare moment I have, and thought I'd show you a couple of the completed items on my list. (Notice I said completed - there are still a few to go!!)
Tote bags make great gifts, and these were really easy to make. I always like lots of pockets in my totes - makes it so much easier to find things - and these have a total of 10!) This pattern is "The Max Bag" by Dixons Designs, and uses grommets to hold the handle. I had not done this before and was truly surprised by how easy they are to install.
I have an affinity for cat fabric, and when I found this Laurel Burch fabric I thought it would make the perfect bag for one of the cat lovers on my list. This is "The Melanie Bag" pattern, designed by Patricia Minich. It has zippers, so it was not as easy as the totes, but still not difficult. (Trust me - if I can make it, it is not complicated!)
Well, I still have a lot of gifts to make, so I guess I better get to it - but I think I will go for a walk first. There will not be very many beautiful fall days like today! Happy Fall, everyone!
