Some recent things that I made!

Last Sat. I had time to do a little crafting, things that I made!
I made two of these calico blue bonnets, the fabric is beautiful! They are $20.00 each if interested.
Pictures don't do the bonnets justice, there is a tiney creamed print throughout the pattern, it isn't solid blue.
It is beautiful calico fabric and the bonnets are approx. 25" long.


I made this table runner for a sweet friend.

I made three of these table runners, $15.00 each if interested.
I made this candle mat with warm and natural in the middle, I may just keep this one for me. He He But if you really want one, I can make you one.
