September decorations

I realised today was the 25th & I'd not made anything for Christmas. A quick search in my prepped pattern basket & I found some ornies that would be quick to make. The kit came with 3 ornies

Plus a wreath
The ornies can also be hung in the wreath


My ribbons are a little long, the pattern didn't say how long they should be cut.

Happy stitching,

September Switch

Getting in a littler early as I'll be visiting DD next week.  Just to switch things up a little, I decided to work on the remaining 3 Santas together, doing a little to each one, each month.  So for September they have their fronts stitched together.


Sew happy for small achievements each month ... Merry Christmas Stitching

Back With A July Finish

Well nearly finished.  I'm jumping in before Monday begins another week of busy busy and I miss posting.  My apologies for being absent through June but life has been hectic with one thing and another. Some of it not great, but a lot of lovely quality time spent with family before and during the school holidays and a little trip away.

So I'm back to my Santa Cutlery Keepers and if I can stay on track I will have six of these little fellows by end of November. Just to prove I'm not sharing a pic of the same Santa each time, here is my first one with his new friend. (Still needs a little more sparkle)


I've also been doing some thinking re next year. I'm happy to keep 1 Xmas Item A Month and our quiet little workshop door open for anyone to pop in and out when time permits. It's lovely seeing the beautiful creations that each of you kindly share with fellow Elves.  I've already decided that I'm going to be working on my "A Merry Christmas Garden" which I started waaayyy back in January 2014. Time to bring this beauty to at least a finished top by end of 2020.  Progress so far is ...



Merry Christmas Creating xx

Finally a Finish


Finally got a finish after being away for a couple of months travelling.
Its a lovely pattern called Let it Snow Pennyrug by Sew Unique Creations and is made all in wool felt.
Cheers Sheryl xx
