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 […]
Lovely Kits.
At the last craft show in March I purchased several Marg Low kits. This Winter weather has given me the perfect excuse to make a start on them. This one that I have completed is Festive Trinkets. Before. And after. I haven’t added the hanging cord yet as I am debating maybe sewing a small […]
More Bits.
We are enjoying a lovely long Labour Day weekend here and the weather is treating us very kindly. Beautiful sunshine and warm days. I have managed a little sewing and have finished the Southern Jewels quilt top. It’s a very simple pattern but is designed well to showcase Leesa Chandler‘s gorgeous fabrics. I made the […]
Eggs And Santa.
Summer. The perfect time to be working on a Christmas quilt? I suppose it means it will be ready for Christmas. This is a small quilt I had sandwiched and pinned a while back. It has waited for a few months before I had time to do the quilting. I only had a small amount […]
Owls Finally Finished.
This week has seen me busy with a lot of preparation work. I seem to be tracing patterns, transferring designs and cutting. I sometimes feel I have been busy with not a lot to show for it, but we all know that it is worth doing to the preparation right to have a good end […]
Planning Ahead Or Catching Up?
Once Christmas had come and gone I realised that most of the Christmas sewing I had done was for gifts. And all the Christmas projects I had wanted to make for our home were put aside. So, instead of leaving them until the end of this year, and probably putting them aside again, I thought […]
Nearly There!!
Christmas Day is sneaking up very quickly and for some reason I keep finding things to sew! Why is that? At least they are little, easy and portable. These are from the current Christmas edition of Better Homes and Gardens. Rather cute! I was able to make more of these decorations, too. And I still […]
Really? Only One Week To Go?
That can’t really be true! Oh, well, I had better keep working on all the unfinished bits and pieces. First a little excitement. A little while back I won one of the Ghastlies prizes being offered by Pauline of Quilt’N’Queen. I chose the gorgeous Tea Cozy. It looks wonderful and I love it to bits. […]
Christmas Picnic.
Today is the last of the Teddy Bear’s Picnics for the year. So of course we are happy to enjoy some Christmas Cheer. My Bear was a new addition to last year’s decorations and it seems appropriate for him to be the one to join in the picnic today. Have a wonderful picnic and visit […]
