It's Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada and general elections on Tuesday. See, Canadians are so low key you probably weren't aware of either of those facts. A fellow Montrealer, the uber cool, Claudia and I had a little swap of acorn caps from my oak tree in exchange for fabric scraps and leather straps (more on that in another post).
Among other things she sent some cute little squirrel fabric with which I immediately whipped up these, to match my new placemats perfectly.
I don't think I'll ever tire of making coasters. Which may be a good thing as I have somewhat foolishly agreed to sell stuff at a craft fair next month for charity.
Happy weekend all!
PS I still haven't sorted that banner issue, apparently Typepad are on the case.
