I have been invited back to the Holiday Market in Down Town Boise this year, and I am very excited! So I have been hard at work making ornaments, wallets, coasters, and apron sets. I sold out of all my wallets and coasters last year so I knew I wanted to make some again for this year. My applique' skills have definitely improved so making them this time around was a lot easier. Here are two of the coaster designs I have finished. The thing I love about these coasters is that they are double sided, so they can be used on both sides, or displayed on one side and used on the other.
In making my wallets they are so fast and easy, I can whip a bunch out in just a few days. (I love to crochet while I'm watching my favorite TV programs.) I also did a small applique' on each one that is hand stitched with embroidery thread, and a little button completes the look. I'm currently working on a few bigger wallets that have pockets and can hold your checkbook. 
The Holiday Market begins Saturday November 6th, and goes through December 18th. I hope to see everyone there! (click on the picture to see a larger image)

I love how the blue/gray coasters turned out, Tara, they look great! I think they're my favorite so far. :-)
