What's gotten into me?


I am literally making something every single day - supplies and projects are stacked on the workbench ready for me to get started.


Yesterday's project was to make a bag for a friend who liked this bag 


I showed on my last post.


The lining for her bag is a remnant from our window seat cushion


and it is personalized it with letters and numbers meaningful to her family.


I don't know what triggered the thought to add a tag, but I like it.


In fact, I like the idea so much that I made a few more tags.


I attached one to a gift and think it looks cute - 


anyone getting a Christmas gift from me this year just might find a drop cloth tag attached.


When I cut the drop cloth for the bag, there was a long narrow strip left and that strip became today's project.


I can't believe I made a Christmas project in August, but I had the time and the materials so I went with it.


No sewing, 


just some stickers and red paint and voila -


a Christmas runner for the table.


We will  Eat . Drink . Be Merry - as long as I can remember where I put the runner until Christmas. time!
