My Gift for the Exchange!
Last night we had our Team Christmas Party!!! I've been so excited about it as it's an event I look forward to all year. We do a Gift Exchange — one of those fun ones where everyone picks a number and you get to pick a gift from the table in numerical order — the higher the number you have the better because you can take a new gift or steal one that's been opened! Lots of fun!
So here is the gift that I made for the exchange…..!
It's a scarf, hat and mitten set that I made with fabric, buttons, ribbon and the Big Shot!!! Here's a shot of my modeling it…
Now for some upclose shots of each item… the Scarf:
The Gloves:
The Hat:
This was soooo much fun to make!!!! I'm going to have to do another set for myself!
ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS:
- These adorable flowers come from the Circle Die. For the large flower, I stacked all 4 circle sizes, for the medium the 3 smaller circles and for the small flower I just used the 2 small circles.
- The flower layers are all held together by sewing the buttons on — I didn't do anything to anchor the layers together — I think part of the fun is having them kind of "flow."
- The smallest flowers didn't use a button – instead, I punched a hole through both circles with a Crop-A-Dile, then tied a knot in a piece of Taffeta Ribbon and pushed it through!
- Each of the leaves are a loop of Old Olive 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon.
- I didn't use a sewing machine for anything — just needle and thread!
- You can use any kind of fabric, I used Suit Wool that I purchased at my local Craft Store. The scarf set is from JCPenny.
