Christmas Belles




This is a piccie of block 1 & 2 of the Christmas Belles quilt that I'm doing with 3 mad (as in fun mad) crafty friends, as you can see I stuffed up when I cut out the centre stitchery of block 1 so I will have to think of something clever to add so its centred properly, I'm a dopey Dora, never mind all will be well in the end. I have decided not to buy any fabric for this project as I want to use my stash fabric only so hope it works out okay.

" Old Country Wares" 3D stitchery


This is a Rustic Country Wares pattern by Julie Wilson in a rusty frame, it was different to make with the cushion, plates and sign being a bit fiddly but I love the finished picture.

COMPLETED .... 7 to go.

Not all these things are for me but they are certainly on the list of " to do's " for this year.

Phew I'm exhausted just writing it down so I'd better a move on and stitch like there is no tomorrow.
