FINALLY

WHEW, thank you for hanging in there with me.

We are finally DTC and should even be logged into China this week!  YAHOO  I still have to pinch myself to believe this is not just some dream.  We REALLY are going to China, we REALLY DO have a daughter who is 3 years old and is waiting for us!  Thank you Lord for all the provisions so far!!

Since the title of the blog is "stitching my way to another daughter from China", it's about time I added my latest project!  I have been blessed to receive a gift from a good friend that is very similar to what I was making so I have twice the items to sell!  Thank you so much Michele!!!

 Some Chinese fabrics...Top is red black and blue firecrackers, center is blue with lanterns, the bottom is a pretty black, red and cream Chinese fabric with cranes, and characters.
 These are paisley prints
 Just plain whimsical fabrics
 These are coffee cuffs they are double felt layered non adjustable cuffs to keep you hands warm but not hot when you slide it over your coffee cup.


The cozies are layered with the same insulating material as a pot holder and will keep the chill off of the iced drinks as well as keep you from being scorched with a hot cup of coffee.

Each cozy and cuff are 10.00 each with all shipping charges included.  These are all hand made with love for a little girl a half a world away.  There will be crooked seams, there will be missed stitches, there might even be extra threads hanging off the sides.  If you are looking for perfection you won't find it here but if you want to help us bring home our sweet daughter from China and help the environment as well (because who needs all those little cardboard cozies we throw away all the time in the landfill)  They will fit over any mug without a handle.  The cuffs do not go as high as the cozies, and the cozies are adjustable with Velcro to fit either high or low on the mug.

I hope you enjoy them, I have plenty of more fabric to make more if needed so please pass around the blog address and if you'd like to order just leave me a message with the fabric you want and the email address I can send your PayPal invoice to in a comment (which will not be published).

Thank you so much!!!!
