I had so much fun making a quilt for Munch that I had to make one for his friend in Austin too. I haven't heard from her Mama yet, but I'm hoping they already have it. They are moving to Taiwan next month and I wanted her to have it for the plane trip.

Pick a Scarf
For Christmas I made my sister's boyfriend Mark a pick bag. Which apparently was a wonderful idea because he's always losing his picks. The electric guitar is from a kit by Sublime Stitching.

Cupcakes for Lunch
My sister requested a lunch bag for her to bring to work. So I made these cuties using a tutorial by The Purl Bee. It was SO super easy to make them and they would totally make adorable gift bags!
I also made this bag based using a tutorial by The Long Thread. I found the embroidery pattern on Flickr and it was created by Jacque Davis.

Finally gave my sister-in-law her birthday present yesterday. I really liked how this purple cross turned out.

Wish List Wednesday
I have been doing a lot of embroidery the past few weeks and have managed to draw blood several million times. It's amazing that I still have fingers. It's also amazing that I don't own one of these.

Pin Up Wreath
Thanks Martha! This wreath took only minutes to finish and I somehow managed to NOT burn myself in the process.

MIL 60th Birthday
My mother-in-law turned 60 yesterday so of course I had to make her something! To be honest I had a hard time giving up this reversable bag. I just LOVE the fabric so much. However I already made a skirt with the gray fabric so I decided that I didn't want to be to matchy. 

I also gave her this cross I made a while ago, but wasn't sure who to give it to. Turns out her favorite color is blue, so it worked out perfectly.
My Sister-in-law has a birthday next week and she already requested I make her one too! I have a few completed projects ready for Christmas, but I'm not sure who reads this so obviously I'll have to wait to give before I post.
