    Hi everyone!

    I wanted to share something I do with all the little scraps I accumulate-they're Christmas ornaments made out of 2.5" squares of fabric. I got the pattern online from www.make-stuff.com. Here's the link for it:

    They are so much fun to make...for me it takes about an hour to do, but it is easy when you are watching (or listening to) TV! Here is a picture of a few of mine:

    Have fun,

    They are not expensive to make, and my kids' teachers go crazy for them!
