COLTS fly swatter

Check this out....I LOVE IT! It's a COLTS flyswatter. I just finished this one this morning. The design is by Dawn Marie Able. She has a couple different pc Yahoo groups. Her website is http://www.adorabelcrafts.com/store/ . What a talented designer!!! I followed the pattern for the most part. Only after I was finished I realized that when doing the bottom of the horseshoe it was just a little different from one side to the other because I mirrored the right side by looking at the left, and not really following the pattern. It worked out just fine. Another thing is that I had stitched the two pieces together before I realized I had not done the french knots on the horseshoe....so I glued tiny little pearl beads instead. It came out great. THANKS DawnMarie for another great pattern.

looking for Chicago Bears magnet pattern

I am looking for a pattern for a Chicago Bears magnet pattern. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

tea time

This is a first for me in some ways. I've heard about, and seen patterns for tea cups. This was the first one I did. It was fun! ...and a learning experience. It was the first time I stitched a back to something so small, and there are better places to start stitching the two pieces together than the outside edge. Doing it the way I did made it a little difficult to do the inside part of the handle. Oh well, it still came out kind of cute. This tea cup is for a birthday gift in a birthday magnet club. I chose pink because it was a preference of the birthday girl. I sure hope she likes it....

New Magnets

Here are pictures of two new magnets I completed last night. One is a patriotic heart that I am sending to Terry for the patriotic magnet exchange, the other is this kitty magnet I made for Kim Galla's birthday. I really like both of these. One of these days I need to take some time and make myself a magnet or two. I don't think that's ever been done! LOL
