Coasters and cookies

In order to save some money and still give a small gift to give to our family me and Mark decided to make a few things. Mark baked cookies for the first time. He baked for a couple days and had fun doing it. I made 13 sets of coasters. I gave one set away already and let Jess pick one out. The rest will go to the family. It is fun to have a little something to give.



We have a family party today and we are going to my sisters' house. My daughter has to work until 5:30 today. That sucks but that is retail for you! The part I don't like is she will be driving over to join us after she gets off work and our weather is horrid today. So not only will we be driving in treacherous conditions but we will have two vehicles over there to get home. It will be worth it to all be together though......I hope.
I have a quilt I made (quilted only, as I bought the top) for my sister and I am sewing down the binding on it now. This quilt is huge so it is taking a while. I may bring it with me. Although she will be surprised that I have it, it isn't a complete surprise and it isn't a Christmas gift.....what am I trying to say?
I don't know!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.

I tried those coasters and kept poking the corners out! I gave up and went back to the clothesline wrapped coasters!

I love all those coasters. They are so pretty and colorful. The cookies look good too!
