I got everything ready to mail for this months "Enchanted ornament swap" The theme is birds.....I cant show them yet, but I have to show how I am mailing it....
Fun packaging huh? I will show the rest later...
I also did up a pet portrait for a friend to give as a gift....I accidentally erased the picture it was based on, but it is of Max, the golden retriever....I hope you like it Riane.....
Last of all, I found a tutorial at "all sorts" for the cutest criss cross coasters....It is the easiest pattern ever...About five minutes a piece....really! I used some cute retro fabric...this pattern would make cute little square place mats for our trailer too......
I am in love with these little coasters...this may become a new favorite thing to make!
Well the kidletts are getting restless, so gotta go for now...Enjoy your day!!

You have been really busy. I love getting mail in recycled plastic bottles. They are always fun and the mail people get a kick, too.
That dog is gorgeous, you are SO talented. As for the quilt squares, all I have to say is, it might take YOU five minutes. It would take me all day, since measurements were involved.
Sorry to hear about Lisa. Hope she's better. I've never heard of rota virus. I must live in a bubble.
