Some Birthday Gifties

I had lunch with some lady friends today, and we celebrated all our birthdays - from May, July (mine!), and August. We exchange gifts each year for birthdays and Christmas. This year, I chose to make them each a plastic bag dispenser in some really pretty pink and green fabrics, and I tossed in some gray just for fun.

I used the Moda Bake Shop Grocer Bag Dispenser pattern, but added 1 1/8" lattice between 4 1/2" squares: http://www.modabakeshop.com/2009/06/grocery-bag-despenser-tutorial.html.

I also whipped up a couple of hot pads:

And a couple of my Shoop-Shoop Bags. I added some hexi fun!

I have soooo many hexis just waiting to be applied to something! Maybe I'll work on those today :-)
