This month's Crafty Church was mostly making Christmas decorations!
I was taught how to make these fun decorations
And Daisy, Ellie and Rosie (who taught me) and their mum made 6 large versions between them and then joined them together to make this mega star (about 20" across)
Tara made this *tiny* Christmas scene from a kit
And Lynne is working on this in secret as a Christmas gift for her daughter
This kept me warm on the way to church - tank you Janine - I love it!!!!
I popped into my LQS last week. I've known Helen for (we worked out) at least 23 years. She has a log cabin in the front garden - it's a shop and workshop. I have spent many happy hours there, but she and her husband have put the house on the market and plan to move to the south coast for retirement - the shop has now closed :-(
I help the retirement fund I bought a few bits and pieces: some shocking pink spraytime for the Kaffe Fassett quilt
some Sashiko stencils for a class I'm teaching next year
A beautiful teale fabric and some brown spraytime to go with it, a few meters of dark blue, some sky and some random FQs
And I think I'm ready for Christmas - woohoo!
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
