My Christmas sewing is coming along. I am an hour or so away from completing these three hanging tea towels and have picked fabric for a fourth:
Once I have added the tea towel parts, I will make button holes and choose yummy buttons. Two of the four are on their way as little pressies for [secret name] and [secret name] and one of them is for a custom order. This is what they look like once completed (this one was made in July):
Once these are completed I can cross them off my 100 Day Hustle list. Yay!
I've also been busy sewing Quirky bird Christmas tree ornaments. I've made four so far. I even splurged and bought some pinking shears [early Christmas pressie to myself -- Santa said that was ok] so the wings could be done neatly. The wings on this little guy were done free-hand before I got the fancy scissors.

You are in the swing for Christmas now. I need to catch up! Di x
The tea towels are a great idea. Is it wrong, though, that I originally thought that first pic was a little rude? Sorry, maybe just me. ;)
Lol, nearly wet myself at Erin's comment! Such a great idea though - looking fab!
glad I'm not the only one that thought you were making willy warmers ;-)
Love your little birds!
cool tea towels and cute birdies. Enjoy the craft fairs x
OMG Charlotte is filthy ;-) Love the birds x
I agree with Kelly! Hahaha!!
Hahaha These women might be people I know, based on the comments here.
Amy, I wanted to ask, do you use a tutorial or pattern for the towels? I remember that my mother received one like this as a gift, and it was something that she used for years until it fell apart. I am going to a book club meeting this weekend, and would love to whip one of these up for the host since she's putting me up for the night.
