Adventures in free motion quilting
... using this book.
... design is from this book.
... into one of these (I can not see me having any time for such a project - but I really really want to do this.)
Its not to late to add those cute finishing touches to the presents all wrapped up under the tree. I like to keep all bows and cards from any occasion and recycle them. This year I have recycled the ribbons and cards from holidays gone by. 
It really takes no time at all to make your own gift cards and it is great to recycle. Use normal scissors or pinking shears, a hole punch and a bit of ribbon. Some of them are so cute they could pass as brand new gift tags!
I made a couple of adjustments. I used bobbly wobbly eyes and folded the ears ...
... while hooking the candy cane through the ear loop at the back - which made them perk up a little. The mice are in browns and greys, with little red rudolph noses and colored ear inserts which match the color of their tails.
They are just as cute as I dreamed they would be.
I was very touched when I was asked to finish it. 
Grandma's eyesight wasn't so strong - so there were a couple of mistakes that I tried to cover up with some little flowers. 
I hope I did it justice.
