Santa Sack Swap

Barb from barbscreations was my partner and boy was I spoiled.

Look at all these goodies in the box.
First up was this beautiful Tilda bag that I put all the goodies into until opening day
My Little helper (Angus) helped me open the goodies.  First up was a beautiful table runner Angus said it's Russell the sheep when he opened it.  Candlemat and candles, a christmas decoration, a bon bon filled with yummy goodies, a Rosalie Quinnlan stitchery and thread, fabric and pattern to make a angel




Thank you Barb for all of my goodies I love them all.

Dress Bookmarks

I seen these on a blog a few months ago and loved it.  I decided to make quite a few at one time, (as I do)  My sister has already claimed some.  I know I will be making more for school fete's in the future.

Some more finishes

I have now completed all 9 stitcheries from It's a Red Work Christmas by Rosalie Quinlan.  I have really enjoyed making these, next is to work out how to finishe it off.
This was a Ufo that just need to be framed.  It is a Leanne Beasley design that we got at the the sewing day I went to.


Busy couple of weeks

It has been school holidays here, so I have been doing some sewing here and there.

I made this rag quilt a few weeks ago and it has sat around waiting to be clipped so we had a movie day at home and I thought today's the day, now I just need to get it in the wash and see how it turns out.

I have been asked to make a quilt for a little girl so I found this material, and I thought it was so cute, I hope they like it.

2013 Mystery Quilt from the Fat Quarter Shop.

I decided to join in The Fat Quarter Shop mystery quilt for 2013.  I got the first block done on time and get behind with block 2 3 and 4.  Over the last 2 days I decided to catch up before it become a UFO.  I love the fabric,  I find they send a lot more fabric than you need to finish each block.
