I made a bracelet:

(Of course, I can't find where I put my rings and clasps and such to finish it properly :oops: )

By the way, have I mentioned that there is a free bookmark pattern on my blog every day the first week of May? I hope it's OK to write this here. :thinks:

Great mini projects, everyone!!!!! The bracelet idea is niffy! I enjoy looking through the mini projects album and seeing everyone's projects. The magnet is a cute idea too!

I stitched this last nite and finished it off this morning. It holds my little magnifiers that I used when working in a textile mill dyehouse, I used it to check fibers for colour penetration. I've had it for 40 yrs and still use it in my stitching to check charts that are hard to read.

I love that little bag Linda, and yes, beautiful colours. You always finish everything off so nicely. :applesauce:

Here's a little ornament I found half done and finished off with a little more work.

I smiled when I realized Rose will love the snowman ornament! It is lovely!

The bag that holds the magnifier is lovely too! Great idea to keep something in a protective bag. I might have to steal that idea for one of my magnifier too. LOL

Linda, that little bag is adorable. What did you use to line it?

Socialsue, the snowman is lovely, too, it made me smile as I was just asking my boyfriend yesterday, will we have any more snow this spring... :lol: I am longing for summer right now.

I just used what I could find in my stash, a piece of cotton . The pattern recommended satin but I hate working with that, it is too slippery.
