Toasty fingers

These fingerless gloves keep your hands warm while leaving your fingertips free for typing. My hands get so cold in the office. They are made from socks - I'll try to get a tutorial up this weekend as I make another pair to fill a Christmas gift order.

Christmas gifts

This year, I'm sewing many of my Christmas gifts for relatives and friends. This bag is for my mom and has a purse organizer inside. Super easy to make and I love the trim. Saved a piece for another bag because as soon as I make one, I want one for myself.

This is my first MOS entry and I really enjoyed making her. It is for my daughter, who wanted a ballerina. My next project is a sock elephant for my son. I made a mistake sewing the skirt onto the bodice but decided it looks nice with the ruffled edges showing at the top. The ballet shoes were also fun to sew together.
