All three are wonderful, Geri! Now keep up that momentum!

Teresa

Wow, you have really been busy. Nice work. Beautiful tote. I am such a sucker for totes!

I guess you did miss your machine. Great job on all three. They are great projects. I especially like that bowtie wreath.

First, these are lovely projects, and you HAVE been rather busy. Have fun now that you have your machine back.

Secondly: Sewing machine in the shop for a month !?!?!

Oh, the pain, the pain.

I'm convinced everyone needs more than one sewing machine. You always need a "backup" machine.

Really,
CMC, owner of far too many sewing machines and not feeling guilty at all.

Guess what--my backup blitzed out on me just after the major machine--I then used one of my featherweights to finish up a project that had been started for my friend for Christmas. That same week, I also had lots of trouble with my printer. E-mailing back and forth with HP and all that-finally got that straightened out. You think it's something in my blood? I will get another backup machine, soon, very soon.

Geri

thats really nice !!
Great job !!

Everything is beautiful. You've had the
pedal to the metal so to speak!
Mayme

Lovely job. I keep a backup and use each machine for certain things so I'm not usually shut down. But, if they were all gone, I'd just freak out! Happy holidays to you.

You've sure made up for lost time! Love the bag - love all three projects but the bag really caught my eye! I've got that on my list of things to do - after Christmas. I too, have several backup machines - each one is valued for something different, but they all could pitch in and help if needed!

You have been busy, Geri! Keep on keeping on......

I too want to make a tablerunner, but it will have to wait until after Christmas.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

I can just immagine what you would have accomplished if your machines hadn't given out!! Fantastic job. Jayne

You have been busy great job on all three.

Lookin good... Grace

Those are all great!! BUT----------I love those apple tiles on your walls,did you make those yourself?? I'm in the process of changing the colors in my kitchen to reds,and apples are high on my list of red things.TFS
Kathi

Those tiles are just stick on's and fit right over the existing tiles--they are metal and I bought them from a friend selling them for a fundraiser for his son. My kitchen is all apples.

Geri,you have been busy. They're all good,but I like the wreath one,especially since it's 3-D.Another idea for my files-(sigh)so many projects, so little time,LOL. TFS.

Very nice!!! Love the apples too!

Oh, your bag is too fun! Really cute! All of your work looks wonderful. I remember coming home from a three week trip, I sewed like mad for days. Sorry you were without your #1 for so long. But great work once you got it back!

Nina

very pretty! i love how ya sewed the beads in the flowers!

Geri,
All your projects are very nice. I have a friend who has used pretty placemats for making a purse. That is clever.
Merry Christmas and TFS.
Sally

All very nice, and I just love the beads that run around that bag, as well as the colors and pattern of the runner!

I almost missed your lovely projects Gerri. I love how your bag turned out and the beads really add sparkle.

I have to take a sewing break now until the New Year.
Jean

Wonderful projects, Gerri. I really like the beads too.
