Cosmetic pouch was my last project, but I had to make some adjustments due to the Christmas party exchange rules. We always have to recycle something within our project.
My sister gave me some old handkerchiefs to make another project but as soon as I saw your cosmetic pouch, I knew exactly what mine would be. The handkerchief would become the flap on the pouch. It was so cute with the coordinating fabric. The person receiving it loved it as she would be going on a trip soon.
Then I became hooked on making embroidery machine Christmas cards. One went into each of my Christmas gift exchanges this year with a supply started for next year. -
Hope to get back to quilting soon, have a few quilts to make rhis winter and some to finish.
Had other home projects that I was working on the last few months. -
I’ve been making some table toppers and just finished four Christmas placemats. Busy time of the year!!
