Christmas In October?
If you’re anything like me and you love gift giving and finding the best gifts for that special occasion or holiday season you are always on the look out for presents. I figured, since I have them ready, I might as well start posting them for those that think about what gifts to give and plan ahead.
I’ll start with my big ticket item for the holidays: Secret Santa Tumbler Lap Quilt This gorgeous tumble block quilt is absolutely perfect for Christmas (for you or as a gift)! I created it using 8 different Secret Santa fabrics from the Benartex collection which I purchased from sfoquilter.etsy.com. The tumbler pattern creates the perfect whimsical look.
To make it even more warm and snuggly I backed it with three different winter printed flannel fabrics. So cozy!
My aunt-in-law, Barb from quiltsbybarb.etsy.com, machine quilted this with a beautiful circular patterns...reminiscent of snow!
The binding was done with remaining strips of the same fabric I used for the tumblers. The perfect finishing touch.
Approximate Dimensions: 52” x 57” I also offer a wide selection in colors, designs, and sizes of hand-dyed, discharged bodysuits that are prefect for the upcoming holiday season! I just chose a few of my personal favorites to feature on here:
Beautiful Ornament Long-sleeved Bodysuit - XL
Super Santa Bodysuit – 0 to 3 mo.
Package of Joy Bodysuit - small
Red and Green Sleigh Hand Dyed Bodysuit – large
The next Holiday Item that I have for sale in my shop are my fabric ornaments.
These ornaments are unique in the fact that I made them using my leftover fabric scraps from other projects and then added some glitter to create that extra shine. I currently have four for sale: Sparkly Fuchsia Orb, Swirling Purple Disc, Glittery Lime Green Floral Orb, and the Animal Print Disc. Each one unique and special in it’s own way. Anyone or all that you chose will look fabulous on your tree for many years to come.
So, those are the new things for the holidays…so far. I have some ideas in my head that I have yet to try…hopefully I’ll get some put together before too long. No worries, I’ll keep you posted!
