Hard At Work


I"ve been hard at work the last 2 weeks working on roommate gifts for my end of January retreat. I started always making something for my gift and this year is no different. I need a total of 12 and have 4 completely done. But it isn't as bad as it sounds. I"m on the last steps for the other ones, so I really have a lot done.

Check them out - aren't they fun!

I found the tutorial here (look at right hand column): Ginabean Handmade
