Teacher's Christmas Present

I'm pretty happy with my 7 year old boy's Year One teacher's Christmas present.
I hope she is, too!

Yes, there is a bottle of wine in there.
I made a bag from red lame fabric.
Tied it with a big gold wired edge ribbon bow.
And attached 4 coasters that I made.
I used Christmas fabric and backed them with same red lame fabric.
I sewed a few beads to each corner.

And there you have it...a cheap and easy Christmas present.
But it looks pretty fancy, don't you think?

I have some similar coasters in my shop Sew Thea.

Christmas Presents

This year I decided to sew most of the Christmas presents, especially for the nieces & nephews, and our kids.
Here is some of what they're getting...

The kids' aprons have recipe journals and kid's cook books to go with them.
The library bag will have books and a toy inside.
And the beach bags will have fun-in-the-sun goodies inside.

I've finally finished all the present sewing.
Now I'm sewing bags instead of using paper wrapping.

I'll put those on my next post...
