Christmas In July

This week I was allowed to open my gift's from my secret partner.  Pam sent me these beautiful wrapped presents. ( pamslittleplace.blogspot.com.au)

It took a lot for Angus not to open them as he thinks when you get present you open them.  Anyway yesterday was the big day so we sat down together and unwrapped them.

I have been very spoiled by Pam  thank you.  A reindeer christmas folder by Gail Pan, a Angel ornament by Rosalie Quinlan and a mini quilt by Michelle Ridgeway and some beautiful chocolates.

Thank you once again Pam for my beautiful gifts.

It's a Redwork Christmas and a Christmas in July Swap

This week I finished block 7 of It's a Redwork Christmas.  2 more blocks to go then I have to think about putting it together.

My Christmas in July swap need to be in the post on the 15th July  so I was early and it went today wonder where it's heading North, East, South or West mmmmmmm.  This one is a Secret so I hope my partner likes what I made and sent.  Will reveal on the 25th when we are aloud to open it.

Tonight I finished cleaning out my scrap box, I sorted out all the 2.5, 3,4 and 5 inch scraps into bags and the larger pieces sorted them too, so now I dont have to rumage through the box to find something.

Now im off to hit the Ufo box again and find some hand sewing for tommorow.

Blocks 5 and 6 It's Redwork Christmas

I am enjoying hand stitching this design by Rosalie Quinlan.  I will have to start thinking soon how I want to finish it as there is only 9 block.
