A Christmas Corner.
Posted on December 22, 2010 | Comments Off on A Christmas Corner.
Just a little decorated corner. Most of the ornaments are hanging on a cane tree. The embroidery on the wall is Mill Hill. What a shame I didn’t hide the computer cable! The skittles are from Villa and Hut.
Some are made with bells.
Excited!

Just a little bit excited here! Well maybe a whole lot, really!!!!
I found out that I am the lucky winner of some beautifully stitched snowmen blocks from Pauline.
Pauline had them there as part of Sew, Mama, Sew’s give away day.
Please visit Pauline, QuiltnQueen, to have a look at her wonderful work.
I am just going to keep pinching myself to make sure this is real!
Thank you so much, Pauline.
Table Runners and a Mug Rug.

I have finished the last of my sewing to be used as gifts for Christmas.
These table runners are from Disa Designs.
The next photo is to show Robyn how much I am enjoying my gorgeous mug rug.
There’s a little friend in the pic as well! (Sorry the shot is a bit crooked- had trouble keeping the goanna still.)
Another big thank you to Robyn. I consider myself to be very lucky to have received such a generous gift!

Little Stockings and Circles.

I have managed to make nearly a dozen of these little stocking ornaments.. They were filled with chocolate bars and candy canes. All but one have now been given away. The stockings are based on a mixture of patterns from Rachel’s of Greenfield.
I have also managed to finish a few more of these circular felt decorations and have taken them to break up parties to give as gifts. Most are based on Marg Lowe’s pattern using buttons from Theodora Cleave. Some are variations of that pattern.
Reindeer Mischief.

I think the reindeer in this wall hanging look like they are ready to get into a bit of mischief. They do bring a smile to my face when I see them.
This is an older one of Santa and his friend.

Another of my collection of wall hangings from Cubby House Designs. (Same as the Deer Oh Deer pattern – told you they just keep coming!)
A lot of the pieces are fused to batting before being hand stitched. This raised the pieces to give a 3D effect.
The little bit of embroidery was done in back stitch using a variegated thread.
Late Cards.

I know! I am running very late with making my cards for Christmas this year.
I finally had all the parts made.
And then was organised and put the pieces together together.
Now I just have to write in them …. and address all the envelopes!
The Santas Are Multiplying.

My Santas are set out together in their own little corner.
They are keeping an eye on the tree, hopefully thinking about a few gifts that may go under it!
