I mentioned in my one of my recent previous posts that I was working on some last minute Christmas gifts.
Well I finished the gifts last night – two tote bags for two people in my life who love the Star Wars saga:
They have roomy interiors:

And both external sides of the tote bags have pockets. I used coordinating solid fabric for the inside of the pockets for some contrast.
Now all I can do is see if the tote bag recipients like them!
Oh and John worked on a last minute gift too – a set of cutting boards make from the scraps that his friend gave him of their new wood floors. I think they will be pretty pleased when they see the offcuts/scrap wood from installing their floors turned into something useful!





Tierney, I will probably never catch up on a month or more posts – but I’m going try over the coming weeks
the last minute gifts look magic

both you and John did yourselves proud with gift making. Genious idea to make cutting boards with leftover flooring, and your bags are “wow”.
