Zipper rosette embellishments





I continue to perfect my zipper rosettes. I am adding not only vintage buttons but also jewelry pieces / parts. I'm finding better ways to attached the zippers to my fabric strips and playing with the fabric width.

Felted Holiday Stocking




I was given 5 felted thrift store wool sweaters and was asked to make simple holiday stockings. Notice the hanging loop is attached to the front of the stocking. I liked the angle of hanging drop this created. These stocking are also lined with a simple cotton fabric.

Mini Gift Bags from a Repurposed Stole



Thank you Pastor Parker for donating some stoles. I repurposed one into 6 mini gift bags with snap closures. They measure 3.5 x 4 inches. The fabric is so vibrant and crisp. Best wishes on your retirement!
