Purses for all my sisters!!! :)
Here they are opening them: We had Christmas with my family Christmas Day...
and then last Friday, we went up to visit Mark's family for an extended weekend and had Christmas with them.
I think they liked them! I made them with Caron Felt-it yarn, 100% wool, then felted them. They are also lined like my purse, but with different, fun fabrics. For more pictures and pictures of the purses before I felted them, click here.ETA: For more homemade Christmas gift ideas, see Tip Junkie's Talk to Me Tuesday! If you're visiting from Tip Junkie, feel free to have a look around. You might want to check out my crafts or other Christmas ideas.
They are so cute! Some day I will be good enough to make something like that. For now dishcloths are my speed. Glad you had a good Christmas. I sure wish we could have gotten together, maybe some other time.
ReplyDeleteThat looks great! I wish I had time to do that sort of stuff! Very cute!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked them. I enjoyed them! :)
ReplyDeleteMelissa, just keep at it! You can do whatever you set your mind to! I can't wait to see some of your purses, or whatever cool things you make!
Hi. I don't know if you remember me or not. I met your family at Duncan,Ok. I just recently got started knitting and I love it. I started knitting dish rags and now I'm starting to do more complicated ones. I found your link on Shari's blog and have thoroughly enjoyed seeing what you have made. Margaret Velazquez
ReplyDeleteMargaret,
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you found me! :) Isn't knitting addicting? I have really enjoyed it! There are so many cool patterns out there, and just put two dishcloths together and you have a purse! :) Knitting is pretty easy once you get the basic two stitches down.
Great gifts!
