My secret gift is packed and ready to go to one of my farmsisters on this thread, I hope you like it. Grace thank you so much for my Surprise which arrived yesterday, I love it I really do. The colors are perfect for a beach kitchen I will have again one day. I look forward to Jubilee every year, they are always fun and special.

Hey Tina, glad you are joining us. Each year a theme is planned,, be it aprons, card making etc... We make & do a show-n-tell. We do this in honor of our Queen Bee's birthday.. so from Jan to May we share our projects.. I like to send out an additional hand made project, be to someone on the forum a surprise, and I like to send one to Mary Jane. But there is no obligation to make and send. this isn't a swap, just a fun gathering.
Some of our talented sisters crochet and some sew while others are talented Enpherma crafters.
So join in and have fun..

I am actually thinking of using up more scrap fabric and make a few more pot holders to have on hand as wee little trinket gifts.. Even my gal pals who don't like to cook, can use the potholders,, as wine bottle coasters! lolol!

What a great assortment of pot holders! I want to work on decreasing my scrap accumulation and potholders will be a great way to do it. Can you guess what the family will be getting for Christmas this year LOL! If I get working on them....

Visited my in laws today and my mother in law had this hanging in her kitchen: My mother in law loves buffalo since she visited yellowstone a few years ago. I made it last year, but since we're celebrating with pot holders this year I thought I'd share.

Well, I tried my luck at a potholder - first one - I'm not a great seamstress at.all. and my machine often times gets the best of me and extracts a few choice words out of me once in a while, but, I'm okay with my first attempt which will allow me to try again. I will send this one to my mama and wish her a happy jubilee! Maybe I can even get her to join in the celebrations as she loves MJF magazine.

Heather, I love your quilt pattern potholder you made for your MIL! Shucks, I failed to attached a loop to hang mine with... at least my mom (1st test subject, LOL) won't mind my imperfections. NOTE to SELF: Add loop to future potholders. Grace - I'm so awestruck by your potholders, all so pretty.
