Santa's Workshop

Santa's workshop was busy today! Karleen invited me to her house to sew. And what a productive day it was. First things first, though. Lunch! Karleen served a delicious meal with homemade pizza.

She recently purchased a cookbook of artisan bread recipes. A dough is mixed together and placed in the fridge for up to two weeks. Needed amounts of dough are used for fresh baked breads and things like pizza crust. Today the pizza crust was from her recipe and it was perfect!

Karleen worked on a beautiful quilt. The colors were cheerful for a wintry day.

And we worked on cozy flannel pillowcases. Simple and fast, the coordinated flannels with rick-rack trim made a pretty case. There's no handwork anywhere on them because we used both the sewing machine and a serger.

Here's a set of 'his' and 'hers' --- in pink and blue. The cow jumped over the moon!

And for one who enjoys all things western, a cowboy pillowcase!

We sewed other things as well, but I'll share them another time. I'm already giving too many clues as to Christmas gifts by sharing what I have.

Is your Santa workshop busy too? What are you making? I'd love to know. . .
