Just Added --- More Marvelous MicroMitts!

Tonight I listed 2 more pairs of micromitts, in a yellow floral and a blue check. The plan was for the blue check set to be "manly man-sized", but I didn't allow enough fabric :o( so they're the regular size.

I did list another pair of man-sized mitts the other day, though. The fabric of these blue agate mitts reminds me of the blue enamel cookware that's been around forever.

Halloween Micromitts!!!!!!!

I finally got the mitts finished, photographed, and listed today. One of my sisters is visiting for her high school reunion, so I got her to help with the photos --- it's a lot easier to take a photo of someone else's hand than your own. LOL Anyway, here they are.

More Mitts in production

I've gotten lots of comments on my first set of micro mitts. Some were simply on the lines of "neat idea", but others were more "ooh, I want a set!" So I picked out some fabrics and dug out the Insul-Bright yesterday and got started.

Here's what I got done today:


The red's a bit darker than it shows, and the rooster fabric is a little lighter. (I never can get that red to photograph properly.)

I marked, quilted, cut out, and edge-finished these three sets. Whew! What a job! Tomorrow I'll get to do the easier part, binding and assembling the sets. Then it's time for a photo op before I list them in my shop. Hopefully, they'll sell as fast as the first set. :-)

More Mitts

Tonight I finished my second set
of micro mitts while listening to the Rangers beat the Mariners in a hard-fought game. This pair is blue-green with yellowish dots . I haven't listed them yet, as I'm waiting to hear from someone who likes blue-green items and thinks the mitts are great.

And yes, these have been "in production" for a couple years as well. :-) The next set I'll have to make from scratch, and I want to do it soon -- I've got several people who were disappointed that the first set sold today.

Only Listed Three Days and Already Sold!

I listed the items in my last post on Saturday, and the micro mitts sold today! One of my friends on Etsy bought them. You may have noticed her around -- SurrenderDorothy. She has all sorts of wonderful ephemera in her shop.

Now I have to get cracking on making some more. I have lots of fabric odds and ends that would be perfect. If I can just find the rest of my Insul-Bright . . . . . . .

Microwaves and Easy Riders

I just finished my newest creation -- microwave oven mitts! They've only been in production for at least 2 years. LOL They're an adaptation of a set we saw in a catalog, but bigger. The catalog set won't hold more than 3 fingers (only good for mugs), but mine fit your whole hand so you can pick up larger dishes. The pockets are different sizes, since your thumb is shorter.

Today I finally got some pix of my Easy Rider cool tie set. They're a bunch of baaad bandana fabrics, mixed with stars and eagles, perfect for your favorite biker boy or motorcycle mama.

Take a look at both and tell me what you think.
