    Default My little sister's Xmas gifts

    Here's a link to the pictures of my little sister's Xmas gifts. It's a Facebook link, but it's a public album, so you should be able to see it even if you don't have FB. Please let me know what you think. It was just going to be an apron...then an apron and two potholders. And then an apron, two potholders, and two placemats and two napkins.

    Somewhere along the line (still don't know *HOW* it happened), it turned into an apron, two pot holders, 4 napkins, 4 placemats, 4 napkin rings, and a wet bag for her dirty dishcloths...LOL

    Please tell me what you think.

    Did you mean to include a link or a picture or something? I'm not seeing one if you did.

    Or maybe you meant her gift was nothing? If so, I'm thinking she must've been a very naughty girl this past year

    How weird...I couldn't see the body of your message before. Just looked at the pictures and I love them. I'm assuming you made all of them? Very, very nice gifts!

    I did make all of them. The fabric is so stinking perfect for her, that the gift just kind of blew up. LOL I gave them to her tonight and she was so excited!

    Those are great gifts! I hope she uses them. I made my mom an apron and she won't use it because she doesn't want to ruin it!
