How many days until Christmas?

The holidays have a way of leaping upon us rather suddenly, so the Sewphisticuts tried to get a little jump on the season by making some ornaments and decorations at last night's meeting.  Pat Melilli and Peggy Norton led the group through the steps to make two different ornaments, both starting from fabric circles (yes, even the square ornament started as a circle!).  We also had some show-and-tell.
