Birthday present

I've got a few projects done that I need to post but the only thing I have a picture of is Fran's birthday present.  I've been wanting a new jewelry box or jewelry holder for awhile, so while looking for ideas I came across a fabric hanging holder.  Jerry thought his mom would like it so we made her one for her birthday.
I got the idea from a seller on Etsy.  I used a fat quarter to make the fabric part and Jerry cut and sanded the dowel.  I'm not sure what kind of wood it is, but it is a hardwood dowel that we got at Home Depot.  Jerry also put the hooks in.  I really like how it turned out and may make some more around Christmas time.
