some handmade holiday gifts

grocery totes

a yoga mat tote bag,

made with fabric purchased at nido .

lined with an old marimekko  bed sheet

(many thanks to stew and dawn, my greenie repurposers).

i used an extra long zipper.
{and used my own tote as a prototype...
measured and sketched out a pattern from it.}

a set of babushka napkins.

i also made some coffee cup sleeves,

but forgot to take pictures of them

before i sent them off. 

a gingko zippy tote.

and another dala horse zippy tote.

a chunky mohair cowl,

gifted along with a pair of turquoise, 

handknit muttons.

now that they have been opened, 

i am happy to show you some of the fun and simple gifts 

i've been sewing and knitting.

it's been snowing off and on again here on the hill.

:-)
so pretty.

have you recovered from the seasonal festivities?
