Shop the Swap Winter Market-Discussion Thread!

[TroubleT]

I remembered an item that I bet someone in here might be able to whip up for me!

I'd like to give a set of pieced (not necessarily quilted) decorative throw pillow covers in cream and brick red, maybe with bits of pink. I'm willing to fill them.

How about a retro stocking stuffer? Who remembers Holiday Smackers?

okay, i have to ask...what are holiday smackers?!?

Woo hoo!  Yay for 25 shops

TroubleT, those Smackers looks so fun!

I added some small belt bags to my shop and I'll hopefully be able to add an assortment of the larger size by this weekend.

L2E, it's just a little plastic canvas "monster" who is trying to gobble up your candy. You squeeze his/her cheeks to make her hand it over.

How could I forget? I don't have any embroidery in my shop! 

I'm going to add small 5-6" hoops that I will customize with names. You get to specify color combos and whether or not the frame will be painted.

Sample piece:

I have a set of 4 zombie gingerbread men over halfway finished. They'll be up in my shop tomorrow afternoon.

Ok, for those of you who want jellies and preserves...

Which would you prefer?

Apple butter
Peach preserves
Strawberry preserves
Mulled Cider jelly
Cinnamon Apple jelly

I'm going to start the preparations if there's interest.

I add three more bracelets to my shop.  One beaded cuff bracelet and two wrap bracelets.

Thanks!  And oh, thanks for reminding me!  I will go add this information to the items:  The desert one is 22.45" from loop to button shank and fits snugly on a 7.5" wrist.  I have a small wrist (6.25") and it wraps around three times and is very loose if I wear it at my wrist.  Snugger if I pull it down my arm.  The midnight moons one is 23.25" from loop to button shank and would fit snugly on a 7" wrist.

I just started making these, so I think I'm going to be making a bunch more for christmas presents for family as well for my shop.  Let me know if anyone has a certain color scheme they would like!
