Christmas Coasters

Hey all,hope you had a super Sweet weekend :)  I managed to get caught back up on my rows (see the previous post) and get in a little Christmas sewing too!


Here are three sets of 4 Christmas coasters made from Charms out of a Blitzen Charm Pack,that I picked up while on vacation this summer!  The plan was to get four sets done,however since someone had to cook dinner,and make cookies.....


Instead of just having a plain ole charm square coaster,I decided to cut out a small tree shape and machine applique it to the front of each coaster :)  They look pretty modern,if I do say so myself!  On the back side (sorry forgot to take a photo) you can see the cute shape of the tree.


All stacked up and ready to go!  Where you ask?  Well first,they are off to Clare's Craftroom to hang out at the Under the Christmas Tree Linky party,from there they will be going over to the Linky Party Sew Darn Crafty Lastly they will be listed in my etsy shop (which you can visit via the button on my side bar).

Speaking of party's I am off to visit some party links and see what everyone has been up to!  Have a great week ahead :)

Sewing and listing away!

Today was cold but sunny,so I was able to get outside
to take some pictures.
These are the 12 Elf stockings I made a while back.
I was playing around with this photo on picnik.
Most of these are now for sale in my shop

One of the sets of coasters that are now listed for sale in my etsy shop!
This set is coffee themed.  The other set not pictured here
is rooster themed.

Early this morning I was able to "occupy my sewing room"
and sewed up 6 sets of  triangle pot holders! 
Three of the sets are going in gift boxes for Mr. P's bosses wives,
the other 3 are now listed for sale!

This is one of the sets in my shop,it features penguins.

How about some Christmas cows? 

Or maybe some peppermint snowmen with candy canes!

This set just would not line up for me!
I still like it,even tho the triangles do not line up like they are
supposed to.
I used some Kate Spain that I had left from making the elf stockings,
and one of my Christmas block swap blocks.
Also the candy cane on black fabric,which I can not remember
who makes?  The back,or bottom of this set is a solid white by
Moda.

This set is also going to one of the bosses wives.
I love all the green :)
Too bad I have to give it away,just kidding!
I actually made myself a rooster one that goes great in my
kitchen :)

The last set features Snoopy/Charlie Brown,and a coordinating
Christmas print.
Hope that the ladies like them!

These coasters will make a great teacher gift,at least I think they
would.  These were made this summer,along with another couple
that are similar.

Well I am off to whip up something in the kitchen!
Not sure what yet,but will post about it soon :)
