Christmas Sewing~

I can't show you everything I am sewing for Christmas gifts because...
ahem, hi Mom! :-)  Some things just need to be secret a while. LOL

But I can show you this sweet mug mat I made for our DGD.


The machine embroidery design is from Sweet Pea.  If you have an embroidery machine, she has a lot of cute designs!  She does a little sew along every month and this was November's project. I just finished mine late because of our November travels.  The cookie block is a little pocket.  Santa is done in velvet and his beard is a double layer of flannel.  I think I may have to make another for me! LOL  ;-)

Are you finished making the gifts you want to make, or like me, will you be sewing until the last minute?

Until next time~
Happy stitchin'!!

That's really cute! I'll have to go check out her designs.

That is really cute and I wish I could get the time to learn how to use my machine. I have one and have never even put the arm on, never mind embroider, but would be nice for things like this and words on quilts.

Darling mug rug! I still haven't used my embroidery machine as much as I should. Been procrastinating about embroidering my grandkids names on their new Christmas stockings. Embroidery or applique - too much of a choice.

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
