First, I am actually participating in a Craft:along. Every month three different crafts are posted so the participants can make. I really enjoy doing these things. Here are some of the things I've made.
Some crazy-stitched coasters.
Felt pouches which I gave as giftsto my friends from Puerto Rico and New York.
Individual placemats. These I gave to my brotherand his wife for their new house.
I recieved an Amy Butler pattern as a gift
since it was chosen best craft of the month!!!!!
Knitted scarf which soon will besent to Hungary.
My waterproof lunch bag.
And lime cookies (yes! I baked them myself).At the moment I'm knitting a balaclava
which will also be sent to Hungary as a Christmas
gift.
She gave me a pouch she made, and the pattern
for making more. She also sent me two pre-cut pieces
so I could sew them. I love this gift.
I've also been visiting many sewing blogs, and I've found some I am really loving. Incredibly, there are so many giveaway. I participate in many of them. You see, it is very difficult for me to buy the many beautiful things for sewing that are online. I earn a salary in pesos which is great here since most things are soooo cheap, but what may be cheap for most people over there (U.S), is terribly expensive for us here. So I participate in the giveaways.
For example I just participated in a fabric giveaway at Sweet Tidings.
I also enjoy seeing what other people are creating. and get ideas for gifts to give over here.
So this is my crafty post. I will try to post more of my crafts every once in a while. And I hope I can have more giveaways (this time I promise to send the gifts sooner).
I wish you all a great beginning of week.....

Angie! I received a very fun package from you today. I was excited to see my scarf and then found out I also got another bonus scarf and kitchen towels1 I love the "Viva Mexico"! You are way too generous, thank you so much. And wouldn't you know, today is our first cold day so I can wear one of the scarves to work tomorrow and I will!
I love all your crafts, you are certainly ambitious. And I owe you a gift, too, from my pass-it-on but I think I still have a few months before the deadline. Whew! I better start cracking.
