Having Fun With Reusable Gift Bags

I thought it might be a nice idea to have reusable gift bags. It would have a very personal touch and as an added bonus would cut down on waste. So, I had a lot of fun decorating them. I used applique designs by AS and made them into 3D…

Bringing the Fall Colors Inside

Next I made myself a beautiful fall colored tablecloth. The leave design came from Elsa Goussard and the lace was from AS Embroidery again. I made a centerpiece for my dining room table with the same leaves and a pumpkin carriage and my grandchildren were all delighted. The nice carriage…

A Mega Job, Done!
