Hi Cuties! While picking up my sewing room, I thought about something. My sister Sheila asked for pouch kinda like the box one here, earlier this year.

I had made her one with gussets one time ( a lot more trouble) and she stuffs it and 🤷‍♀️how she goes through them ,I don’t know, but I wasn’t going to all that trouble again. This was made on regular sewing machine.
She also wanted it a little bigger- I didn’t use pattern and you know I make so much, I don’t remember size, so this is what she gets🤪-lol
Thank you Kim again and always, for the post it note holder. It completes her set.
The in the hoop 5x7 was a free design long ago from Sewforum.com
Thank you Cutie again for my name design. It adds a nice touch when I remember 😉
Sheila also will be gifted one of the runners in Community/Sewing I posted. Merry Christmas!
…now unless I think of something else, I really do need to pick up that room!❤️Toogie

Gosh, you are a fantastic sister! I like how you centered the patterns on them. You are a true artist!

Oh gosh, you haven’t looked well at the largest one.
My sister lives 2 states away and always comes Christmas Day to be with all of us. I cook too much, everyone eats too much but everyone likes coming and spending the whole day here. By the time they all leave I am pooped! But, I would not want it any other way. I like everyone coming home and wanting to come. It’s almost 30 but things have been different since Covid. First Christmas Sheila was just getting over Covid and didn’t come. Last Christmas my oldest daughter had a mild case so none of her family came. I am hoping we all stay well and can get together this year.

She will, Maria. She CAN sew but doesn't like to.

People used to tell my daughter that they were lucky I could make all those smocked dresses. Etsy and Zulily weren't here yet, so they couldn't buy them cheap.-lol- my sister likes these bags and though I've made her some before she sure can wear them out-lol

Thank you, I’m glad I remembered about her bag. It’s so hard to buy for us older ones that really have everything because when we need it we buy it, but hardly ever really want anything anymore…unless it’s fabric -lol

You are so right about, Us older ones ;-)

Thanks Laura. I made the largest first and wasn’t thinking about the fabric design. Afterwards when I decided to make the small ones, I paid more attention.

It didn’t take long. We ate a breakfast/lunch of bacon and eggs -lol and tonight leftovers from yesterday, so I was able to sew this morning and early afternoon.

Beautiful job Toogie. you have done so much.
I was asked by my daughter to make her youngest granddaughter a Christmas apron so that she can wear it when they bake cookies on Monday. This is the little preemie that is now 4 months old, and now wearing a 0-3 months. I didn't know what to do, but decided to make it look like a bib, but added a skirt to it. I just used scraps that I had here, and it it sure didn't take much fabric at all. I can't wait to see her in it.
Hoping you goat your room picked up. I have been trying so hard to keep mine picked up as I go, but it doesn't work that way all of the time. LOL
