I started the last three bowl cozies at noon and had them completed by about 2:30.
Then i proceeded working on a couple of coffee cup sleeves. Thank you to https://createinthesticks.blogspot.com/2019/12/make-coffee-shop-cup-sleeve.html. I couldn't find my fusible fleece, so ended up using scraps of the wrap n zap that I used for the bowl cozies on one fabric back and a light poly batting on the other. I was afraid that using the wrap n zap on both sides would make the sleeve too thick.
Actually, I made three... for whatever reason, when I looked at the second one I made, Santa was upside down. Well, that wouldn't do for a gift, so I made the third one.... only to realize that I didn't make the second one upside down. That's ok, now I have one for myself :).Now, to gather the gifts for the neighbors together so that Harvey and Buddy can start delivering them while on their walks and I can take the coffee cup sleeves down to the beauty shop to gift my pedicurist.
Right after the new year, I'll take my domestic ( Marie) down to the LQS so she can be picked up and taken for a 'spa' day. She'll be gone longer than a day, but only because the man only comes to the LQS twice a week, I think. She deserves a good D&C ( dusting and cleaning) and a rest for all she's had to put up with from me.
In the meantime, I can do some cleaning of my sewing room and, hopefully, get another quilt onto Mo'e.
So, if you don't hear anything out of me by New Year's Eve, be prepared to call out the search dogs because there might have been an avalanche in my sewing room with me at the bottom.
Merry Christmas :)
