OT: Leslie/furbabies Fabric Bowls

I finally got off my sick bed and did something today! I made my first fabric bowl and they are as fun to make as they are pretty. I had a stinker of a time getting my computerized new machine to sew through the thickness, so I dug out my old White Jeans Machine that will sew through anything. That was the answer...then I spent a good deal of time trying to get the tension correct but, all that fiddling paid off with a nice first bowl. Tomorrow will be "bowl day" at my house. I can see all kinds of Christmas gifts tucked into bowls this year: soaps, girlie cosmetics, candy, cookies, whatever I can think of. Thank you so much for posting about these...link follows for photo. Donna

Good on you, Donna! I love your fabric choices- the colors are great.

And your first bowl wasn't lopsided like mine! ;-)
