A November cutie!

This month I actually have a wee finish to share :-)

This hanger is made from felt and has a cute little pocket in the front to pop some sweeties into!

It's a Marg Low design from an old Homespun magazine (#38).

It's always lovely to see what everyone's been making and thank you Narelle:-)

November Finishes

November project

My project for this month is a cushion for a friend who has cancer.  She saw the design on the cover of one of my magazines while visiting me, and said "Oh that is lovely!  Would it be hard to make?" and I said no, not hard at all. 

Here is my version.  Slightly different fabric, as I had some red and white spotted material in my stash, which also had little blue flowers on it, but I used it anyway, rather than buy more.   Must call D. to see when I can give it to her rather than wait until closer to Christmas.

1 Xmas item a Month

Catching up!

Dear friends, recently I had the sad misfortune to lose loads of data, including pictures of much of my blogging .. at the same time life just caught up with me and swept me along with family issues, a really bad six weeks of a flu virus and general day to day mayhem!!
Happily I am much recovered, my data is slowly being recovered, and my stitching is nearly up to date :)

Here are Christmas trees 9 and 10!

The beautiful work over the last few months is awesome to say the least!  I am so inspired ... I am most definitely up for some more of the same in 2015 .. 

Stitcheries All Done!

I'm so pleased to share this pic... I've finished all the stitcheries for my Tis The Season wall hanging, woo hoo! The fabrics for the blocks are all chosen, & very soon I'll be able to start work on getting those blocks sewn... progress on this project has happened a little quicker than I estimated, so I am actually thinking it will probably be on the wall for Christmas this year!

One of these designs is going on the back, as part of the label.

I'm loving all the great posts here lately, I must go for a better look at all the gorgeous items♥

GaiL PaN's

design from her 2013 Christmas Book...
Into the box it goes... woohoo...

Thanks Narelle... xox

October project.

This was supposed to be my August project, but I only got as far as the first stitchery, and ran out of time.  I thought it would be finished in September for sure, but no....So I made a concerted effort to have it done by the end of October, and after a couple of very late nights, here it is!  I think I need a new camera....my photos lately are all blotchy or pixilated. 
I hope Meredith (the designer) likes my version of her pattern.  I used the same thread for the stitcheries as per the instructions, but not the fabric, as I had fabric in my stash that I wanted to use instead of going out and buying more.

October Christmas Sewing

Wow who would think just 9 weeks to Christmas. Lots of secret xmas sewing happening here, but I did finish one more block of one of two larger projects I have been working on as part of 1 Xmas Item a Month -

I Made a Start

Once again I don't have a finish to share for October. Boy oh boy is it hard to find the time and motivation to put thread to needle. I did make a start at the beginning of the month and thought I would have a sure thing ...

in need of some holy leaves around the border ... maybe a November share?

Then last night when I went to do my post the internet decided to go on holiday so here I am the morning after. As for the crazy winds that we've been getting day after day, they too play havoc with my internet signal and my sanity!

Did you notice a new page at the top of our blog?  I thought it might be nice to share our favourite Christmas Recipes with each other. Do you have a special recipe, a family favourite, a never fail or the best ever yummy treat recipe? Feel free to add your recipe to this page with or without a picture and be sure to add your name ... I'm hoping we would all love to try some new dishes. I'm not sure how group blogs go as far as posting on a different page so let me know if you have trouble or email your recipe to me and I can add it for you.

Happy Christmas Baking
