Christmas Wishes.
The last of the Christmas sewing has been completed. I had this group of stockings to complete for Christmas day. They now only need the name tags to be added. They are also made and I will stitch them on this evening. We are all looking forward to a lovely break over Christmas. Best […]
Santa Bags.
I have recently completed two little Santa Bags. Not unusual for this time of year except that I have only learnt to crochet in the last month and this is the first thing I have made. These are a lovely size for young children. The Christmas cards are finally made and now being prepared […]
Owls, Again.
Lots of owls in the garden, today. Daytime ones. I have a group of friends who get together just before Christmas and we all bring little gifts to swap. These hot pads are the start of my little collection of gifts to give. They come from a pattern named Hot Who and it’s from Susie […]

Hop on over to have a look at the lovely Christmas inspiration. I have chosen one of my favourites as my entry for this year. It is titled Reindeer Mischief and […]
Weekend Cards.
I spent some lovely time over the weekend with friends at a workshop to make some cards for Christmas. (It really is going to sneak up on us!) Chris is the lovely lady who ran the workshop. You can find her on Facebook at The Art Room. (I will find the link for that.) We […]
Little Stitching Finishes.
I have been enjoying working on some of Lynette Anderson’s small projects. The first one is a pin cushion made from the pattern, Garden Pincushions. I used a Cottage Garden Perle 12 thread called Oxalis for the stitching. This went together very quickly and is finished off with the gorgeous button that came with the […]
Snow Mates.
I have completed the little wall hanging that was well under way last week. It has grown from this… To this ……… I had wanted to play with different colours to see how they worked. The original has been done with white ribbons for the snowmen on a natural linen. That one is […]
Snowflakes.
Snowflakes in September! I shouldn’t joke about that. The way our weather is here, anything is possible, even though it is Spring. My snowflakes refer to the felt ornaments I have been making. The first group are made using a mitten shape from one of the patterns from Rachel’s Of Greenfield. I have than added […]
Paper And Pins.
I have hardly had a chance to play with paper these last few months, so it has been great to get a few cards made. I really do need to get some scrap-booking done as the photos for this year are piling up. And I also need to think about getting some ideas for Christmas […]
Playing With More Felt.
My little felt snowmen are completed. They are all stitched, filled and decorated. I even remembered to add a hanging thread. I hope to make another batch of these, but am happy with this lot for now. These are from a pattern and kit by Rachel’s of Greenfield, called Snow Folk. I have another kit […]
