Lime Coasters

Hello all and Happy Saturday.  Today kicks off another challenge by Catch the Bug:
Bingo's are hard for me, but I'm going with: Border, Red and Green, and Sentiment:
I made a bag topper using Mini Set Cute Fruit Blocks (that I also used to make a set of magnets - LOVE this set!!).  The sentiment is Stampin' Up's Itty Bitty Banners.
What's in the bag you ask?  A set of coasters - the tutorial is HERE!  Aren't they the cutest?  I made an orange for myself, and these limes are part of my Handmade Christmas.  Yup, still trying to make gifts instead of making debt.  Since I already have tons of felt on-hand, these only took my time (and love) to make.

Have a wonderful day and thank you for stopping by.  I appreciate your visit.

This meets the following challenges:

    Well, I love love your bag and tag for it and the homemade coasters are WONDERFUL. We also try to make homemade gifts, but there were a few I had to buy like the Groupons...but at least that afforded us a huge savings. WE have a small budget for Christmas but we make it work and no depth and we enjoy the Christmas holidays for it. I love the homemade projects and they have so much sentimental value.

    What a great gift idea! And the stamping on the packaging is darling, Lola. Silly lime for sure! All that stitching by hand makes your gift very special.
