Our Christmas Theme this year was
"Something bottled, Something Baked, Something Old that You Re-Make"
Here are a few things that I made this Christmas.
These PJ bottoms for my grandkids were made out of fabric I had in my "stash" of materials OR out of old t-shirts. I made 13 pair and it was crazy but fun! I wish I had a pic of each of them. The ones made from t-shirts had to be just the right screen print to go down the side of a leg and they were so easy to sew! Serger only.....easy.....and no side seams. My son Eric screen printed the t-shirt tops for our whole family.
Here we all are in our "Re-Cycled Christmas" t-shirts...
This was a drawstring back pack I made from a t-shirt and sent to my granddaughter Kindel who lives in Lake George, New York.
I made hot pads from leftover fabric, some Christmas fabric, and old levis. My sister, Shelli gave me the idea from her blog.
This is also her "Believe" stitching pattern that I stitched onto a dishtowel wrapped around a loaf of bread to give to my friend. Shelli has so many cute ideas! You can check out her blog here.
And then here's the quilt I made for Brock out of old Huffaker t-shirts and two of his t-shirts from his mission in Hungary.
I hope everyone had as Merry of a Christmas as we did. Families are the best!!
