Why, a coaster, of course!
I actually made four. One coaster would be pretty sad, indeed. I used this tutorial and think it was a pretty good first project. Quick and easy. Next I'm going to try some coasters and matching place mats from Bend-the-Rules Sewing. And I have a few other things I'm going to try to complete before Christmas, but I can't really talk about them yet.
And in other craftiness, I'd like to point you over to my sister's blog, Two Little Princesses. She requested a banner with pink and brown, so I whipped up a little something and stuck it on her page while she wasn't looking. I hope she likes it -- and I hope she doesn't mind that I hijacked her blog to set it up.
And I would be remiss if I didn't mention my other sister's blog, Just the Two of Us. She designed her own banner after a brief Gimp tutorial by yours truly. But she figured out how to make the photos black and white with just a splash of color all on her own. She's pretty good. Some might even call her a genius.

ummm...you're officially hired to make me a blog header!! Too cute! You're so computer saavy and crafty too!
Now those are some groovy coasters! They look great!
Lori - I'm glad you like it. If you want to send me some photos I'll try to work something up for you when I have time. You can email me from my profile page.
Mitch - Thanks! I've seen so many fun coaster designs. I'm going to have a houseful before I know it!
Amber's banner is too cute...and she really liked it. A word of warning, though. You may have to make another one soon. Amiya has decided she wants to be a tomboy and has asked for power tools work bench for Christmas. I'm not sure how much longer she will allow her blog to be Two Little Princesses.
I really would like to make a cool header like that, but I have no idea how to. Maybe if you have time you can explain it to me??? If not, don't worry about it. :)
Mom - I'm glad Amber likes her banner. I was worried when I hadn't heard from her. But she sent me an email saying they had all been sick lately. So I guess she's excused.
April - I hope I didn't overwhelm you with the email! I hope you give it a try.
