140717what a cute design !!! and combined with the nice fabric/colors. Great job !!
146674Well done Toogie, I wish I could accomplish so much in one day...you are on a roll and your work is very neat. Love the lady Ant!
1132965927These are fantastic! "Nora's Grill" is a great name of her "restaurant."
33640Like the bag with the second shape, together with the apron and the playfood it makes a very cute gift for a small girl.

Thank you, she still has room in her bag for more. I have more food ideas but may have to wait until after christmas for more.
26010The bags looks wonderful, especially with the larger bottom, that gives a lovely shape. Don't you hate it when designs have so many jumps? I often wonder at the logic behind it. But it looks good. I think ants will leave your food alone :)

At least this ant won't be a pest-lol- I am not a digitizer,as I have said many times before, but there should be a way to avoid these jumps when you do digitize. I do, so love ,the little ant though. Merry Christmas mops,Toogie
145196I agree, the tapered bag looks the best! I have the Picnic Ants too but haven't stitched them yet. Thanks for the "warning" about the jump stitches. Sometimes, my machine catches on them so I have to watch carefully. I love the felt bacon and, what I can see of, the egg. I may have missed a previous post of where the food item designs are from so will you please share. This little gift is simply adorable. I really enjoy seeing all of your posts.

Thanks Nancy,I appreciate your comment. I did have to take my hoop off the machine and trim some of the jumps before continuing. Look for a pm.
4475Your edit on the bag was just what it need to be perfect. Baby Nora is going to be so happy and have as much fun as grandma did in making this.

Thanks jrob, when I looked at #1 photo, I realized how flat it looked, even tho I boxed the bottom corners. I think the deeper boxed corners, #4, was just what it needed too...She is not bad to put things in her mouth but she does love to eat. If she tries this felt, she won't twice. I was asking her mom Nora's favorite color, animal and food, for the little Leap Frog dog I got her for Christmas. I had to program it. Mom said favorites are pink color, animal horse and food EVERYTHING.-lol-(child like her gram)
158553Wow, love this little bag! Great job, Toogie. I feel tired just reading about all the things you have done in one day... lol.
Hugs, Lidia

Then we both needed a rest!-lol Glad you like the bag. I like it better now that I've changed the bottom. Thanks,Lidia
78093Grand job on this also. When love is out pouring....... is when the job and lots more gets done.
86901You have all areas of her cooking cover, she will be such an industrious little one. I hope you know you will have to help her eat all her goodies. These are really perfect for a little chef.

I keep thinking what else I could add to it. I wanted to make her some pop tarts, and still may, by just using my rectangle frame design on my machine,a potholder, etc.-lol
35301Fabulous Toogie and isn't it great when everything goes right in the day? Well done your grand-daughter Nora will love it. Love Chris

Yes, Chris I do like and appreciate those days. I think sometimes when I know how much I have to do I work better or faster. But I once in a while, I have those other days, when the pressure makes me nervous and I can't do anything. Thank goodness they are few and far between. Do you see I edited? Looks better now, doesn't it?

I think her mom will be excited as I am. I use to make her mom, Barbie doll clothes, all the time. She had a large suitcase full. All her little friends use to like to come over and play because she had so many changes for them... We still have them.
24276you did a marvellous job on this tote Toogie. She will be thrilled with it. You had a very productive day! Now you can put your feet up............or will you do more lol ~hugs~
299557Busy day but my goodness you put every minute to good use. Love the design. It is worth all of the jump stitches.

It sure was Karen, worth it,I mean. I am winding down now and if I don't get in the tub soon, I will fall asleep right here! Good to hear from you, hope you have a Merry Christmas.
168909Wow this is a lovely set .I guess in a hot climate you bbq Christmas instead of our Canadian turkey??Hugs

Not here Carolyn, turkey, roast, etc. I just remembered about this design and thought that Nora would like it.
360437That is so cute. The design is perfect for your project.
You have done well with your time. I agree some designs get a bit frustrating with jump stitches especially small lines of them. But as they are given free by people who can do what I can't I am happy to sit and pick them out.

I am too. I can't draw a straight line and sure can't digitize. I am in awe of those that can. This little design changed colors 24 times and I have a single needle machine! It was very time consuming, and I was afraid it wouldn't finish, before I had to go back to work. I did say I still liked the design and I will repeat, I do like this one and there are 3 more in the set. Jumped stitching or not, I will stitch it again.
