We all had so much fun with this - let's do it again ~~

I'm sure you have been gifted a bottle of wine all dolled up in seasonal attire or in a decorative "Wine Bottle Bag". Create and share one that has been uniquely designed by you?

For this swap create an attire, or a bag, for a wine bottle from any type of material you enjoy working with. It can be fun or formal - let's make it for the Christmas holidays.

Sign ups until November 18th, partners posted by the the 19th and mail by November 25th - just in time for your holiday parties.

Get that wine bottle ready to doll up --

REBECCA & JILL
IDA & GRACE
LINDA & JEAN

Yeppers. Katmom is an amazingly creative lady . . . and so prolific. I don't know how she turns out so many cool things so quickly. I need lessons from her.

Just because she is the gracious lady she is Grace (Katmom) sent me this lovely embroidered napkin and very cute Yo-Yo snowman ornament along with Christmas wishes as a thank you for hosting the Holiday Wine Bottle Dress. I think I want her sewing machine so I can create personalized gifts too. Thank you Grace !!!

Rebecca, thank you!!! I received your adorable wine bag yesterday, I just love the fabric you used, and I especially love that I can carry two bottles in it! I will be very popular wherever I go, for sure! :) Thank you also for the goodies you sent along with it: the Christmas-y mug is on my desk already, and the chocolates disappeared almost immediately! The snow globe mini ornaments and mailbox, plus your sweet card, made this all such a treat, thank you for your thoughtful and generous gifts!!

WOO HOO! I received the Wine Dress from you Friday or Saturday - can't remember which. I love love it! Perfect. I love the Christmas fabric you used and the Merry Christmas embroidered on both sides. And you added a candy cane on fron and back to coordinate with the fabric.

I also love the other goodies you made - wine glass coasters, wine glass markers, a wine bottle Stopper, and a felt embroidered trivet to set the wine bottle on. Everything is beautiful. And ... my favorite is the beautiful Christmas Spider you made, her cushion, and you send the story of the Christmas Spider. I love it so much! Thank you again.

Hey Linda -- Thanks again for the adorable gnome and the accompanying goodies. I loved everything. Tracking says your wine dress was delivered a few days ago. Please let me know if you didn't get it and I'll try to find out who did and make you another. Hope you are having a happy holiday season . . . well as happy as can be expected under the circumstances.

Well, what is it "they" say . . . better late than never . . . life kinda got in the way the last couple of weeks, so I am a tad late getting your Wine Bottle Dress sent off to you, Linda. I hope you'll forgive and that it will be worth waiting for. Box is ready for DH to take to the Post Office taco truck tomorrow. I'm sending it Priority and hoping you'll get it by Saturday.
And then . . . photo also late . . . drum roll please . . . would you look at this adorable Gnome bag Linda made for me along with a couple of fun wine glass saddles and the cutest dang snack plates that have a special holder for stemmed wine glasses. Everything is just too darned cute for words. Thank you so much Linda. jean

The mail lady delivered a surprise for me again today. I received Grace's festive Wine Bottle Dress along with two plate and two cup rugs, a matching mask and a patch of embroidered snow peeps that I can use in a future project. Happy Ho, Ho, Ho to you too Grace and many thanks for being my partner for this delightful swap.

Jean -

WOO HOO! I am glad you like your gnome Santa and goodies. The 2 red "thingees", as you call them, are so you can hold a plate of goodies and not have to hold your wine glass. They are Wine Glass "saddles" that hang around your neck and hold a glass of wine. They are best used when you are standing, not when sitting down; also not when dancing unless you want to really make a mess. LOL! I thought I would make them in Christmas fabrics for the holidays. I gave a couple to Grace earlier this year. Did the plates arrive whole? I was a little worried about them making the trip without cracking up. LOL!

BTW: I am not YellowRose, I am Quiltee - YellowRose is Sara LOL!

Woo Hoo. My adorable Santa all bundled up for winter and ready to host a bottle of Merlot arrived today from Linda. He is too, too adorable. And he came with some delightful goodies too. Tomorrow when the light is better I will post a photo. But I must ask you, YellowRose, what are the two little red "thingies" on ribbons pray tell?

I spent all day today tearing away stabilizer from the wine dress I am making for Linda. I had forgotton what a chore that can be when the embroidery is intricate. Took me all day, but it's done. DH just brought me my Vitamin C "fix", three fresh squeezed oranges with a wee tad of my favorite Texas Tito's vodka to help sooth me after this chore. Everything will get put together tomorrow but will probably not make it to the Post Office taco truck until Friday.

Big Farmgirl hugs and best wishes y'all for a Happy Thanksgiving . . . . well as happy as it can be in sucky 2020.

DH just home from the Taco Truck. Apparently this storm has resulted in a significant delay of the mail truck arriving from Moscow. So the mail hasn't actually even arrived in Deary yet. When it does, it will then all have to be sorted for delivery. They said it would probably be evening before we got our mail today. So I may see it yet.

With their good humor too bad they couldn't have a Good Humor truck instead. LOL! That is different, for sure. I'll bet if there are a lot of packages that could really be a problem getting them all in the truck, especially at this time of the year! Do they have a secure place to leave everything at night?
