CTTY

Another month has quickly passed and I finished a few more Christmas gifts...of course I can't show many of them on my blog until December.

Here's a sneak peek of one..



Swimming noodles are a nice way to store quilted items so you don't get fold marks.

I also finished a leaf mat that I started some time ago and I thought it would make a nice Christmas gift.


Thanks to Anthea for hosting CTTY and keeping us motivated to finishing our gifts.
 I have Halloween cupcakes for work in the oven and I still need to decorate them when they're cool... 

Happy Halloween!
