BIRTHDAY GIFT CRAFTING

What do you do when you look at the calender and realise that 3 important birthdays are on the immediate horizion?  You get yourself motivated despite the humidity and hot weather and concentrate on getting some gifts done :)  I think I have been successful :)  These will be divided between 2 of the birthdays.  I will be getting it all in the mail tomorrow even though the birthdays have passed - they understand that I am a tad late.  That gives me 24 hours to complete the next gift so I mail 3 presents tomorrow :) 

A  scarf for my best friend Brooke....using this pattern





 I love the way this pattern worked out and how the colours blended.


 A "sunflower"cloth for my best friend Brooke.

 A "rose"cloth for my mother in law


A dishcloth for my mother in law

Some coasters for my mother in law


Another dishcloth for my mother in law
 I love the way this pattern works up :)

 These coasters are for the gift box - they won't be used as a part of the next gift as I have already gifted my mum a set of coasters.


Now I really have to get back to work on my mums gift :)

So many pretties!
Everyone will be so lucky on their birthday.
I think my favorite is the dishcloth for your MIL, all those pretty shades of pink!
I am really into working with pink lately:)
