Getting Ready For Christmas.

Posted on | January 27, 2023 | 11 Comments

Christmas never really feels like it is far away and maybe I will get a few projects done early. These are projects that have been on the go since last year, so maybe they will be in time for Christmas 2023.

Last year I started the Sue Spargo BOM, Tinsel. Because of delays with mail delivery around the world, I didn’t receive my first block until March. Loved them right from the start. This is what I have managed to do, so far.

That is five of the nine blocks finished except for removing some of the markings from the stitch guides. And two little bits of stitching.

The last four blocks have been prepped and the applique is on, waiting for all the stitching to be done.

I have enjoyed watching the FB group share all their blocks along the way. And of course lots of people have their quilts completed. I will get there in my own time.

The other addition for next Christmas is a little Marg Low stitchery to add to my hoop collection. I like sneaking these little projects in between the big ones because it means a quick finish.

The original design is set in a rectangular frame, but I realised it would fit into the hoop (just!).

We are now up to the finals in the Australian Open, so plenty of tennis to watch over the weekend.

Hope you enjoy your weekend, too.

Cheers, Karen
