Does he drink coffee or hot tea?  Make him a mug rug in sports themed material.  (tutorials all over the net)  For a no sew craft make him a knotted fringe fleece throw in his fav team.
2  QUILTING / Quilting: Completed Projects / Re: Rainbow "Fractal" bargello on: August 09, 2011 04:57:50 PM
this is amazing! so many teeny tiny pieces! oh my. beautiful!
The joy of doing this type of quilt is that you sew strips of colors together then sew into a tube.  Then cross cut the tube and pick the seams to stager the color patterns.  You are not working with individual little squares.

Very pretty.  Did you take pics of the fabrics before you sliced them up?  I am working on my first bargello quilt top and I find it amazing how the fabric takes on a totally different persona when it is cut up for this type of quilt.

I just read your 2 blog entries about your bag. That zipper came out looking great. I'll have to read it again slowly & try to follow it so I can make great looking zippers like that. I also saw what you did w/that detail strip on the bottom & that's a great idea - I love it. Thanks for sharing your blog - I'm trying to start one myself & I hope I can inspire others like you are.

The zipper was not hard to do.  I think if you search hidden zipper here on craftsters you will find tutorials on this method of blind sewing the zipper in.  Since I was not about to hand sew the lining the whole length of the zipper and just machine stitched it I did end up with 2 stitch lines on the outside of the bag at the zipper.  I am not worried about it.

Great job sew-wannabe. I like where you put the feet & the detail you did for the feet where you put an extra strip of fabric - don't know if that's in the instructions or you did it on your own, but it looks great.
The feet were something I added.  There were no instructions for doing the feet in the package.  I did remember searching a while ago on the net how to install purse feet and this way stuck in my head.  It makes sense to add a little extra peltex right under the tabs to keep them from rubbing a hole.
