December always seems to fly by so quick. I can’t believe it is Christmas tomorrow. I want to show you my recent creation, which can be an easy, quick to make Christmas gift. Eye mask! I’ve never worn them growing up, but our new bedroom has smoky glass french doors that let in a lot of street light at night. Andy started using an eye mask and talked me into using one since his sleep has vastly improved after he started using it. I was dubious at first, but I gave it a shot, and it did improve my sleep significantly! I don’t use it as much at night, but when I take a 13 minute cat nap during the day, it helps it a lot. Why 13 minutes? 2 minutes to fall a sleep, 10 minutes of actual sleep and a minute to wake myself up! 
How to: You will need three different fabrics (or two if you decide to use the same outer fabrics) – I used quilting cotton for the outer, – furry fabric (used here) in the middle (quilt batting works just as well) – silk satin for the inner. You can use the same cotton for this, but silk satin feels fabulous! I used the left over fabric from this dress. Cut three fabrics in 18cm x 10cm rectangles. Using french curve, make the rectangle corners round. Add the elastics in the back. I cut two 0.5cm width elastics in 24cm, and connected them in the middle with 2.5cm width elastic band cut for 18cm. Finish the edge by bias tape. I used the stripes bias tape in contrasting color.
