What did your January look like? This is my January in photos!
The Stitch group packed lots of kits for Days For Girls
The Chertsey Museum Fun With Fabric ladies made Japanese knot bags
I was gifted this awesome pig in a blanket
I made badges for the scouts who delivered Christmas cards locally
I have been posting Gingers onto facebook - they are based on the National Calendar - this was for the 3rd Monday in January, known as Blue Monday, and the penguin was for Internation Penguin Day - who knew!!!
I also made a pregnant Ginger each for two of Niki's friends who are expecting,
An a couple of dozen 'naked' gingers for the Richmond and Kew Quilters ladies: I'm doing a talk about the gingers at the next meeting, then they all get to take one home and have a go at 'dressing' it
I dont think I showed you my lovely Christmas pressie from Plum:
Which came in its own sleeping bag (actually a FabWrap!)
Nor did I share the fab slippers Lisa crocheted for me:
I went on a course with Stacey (ooops, have forgotton her surname), who had us FMQing designs to be put together as a tribute to the Queen
The lovely Debbie made me Buddy all ready for next Christmas, thank you Deb
And my awesome sister-in-law got me a whole stack of Tula Pink fabrics that are just at the stroking and loving stage, not the cutting stage! Thank you Lisa
And talking of s-i-l: we actually got the whole gang together in the middle of January - my brother and his family from Australia, all 6 of us, and mum. I hadn't seen him or his family since 2011, and Niki had never met her cousins so it was a great treat to spend time with them
Talking of cousins, this is Brian's cousin's granddaughter on her I-Spy quilt - isn't she a cutie!
Our Community Coffee Morning celebrated its first birthday at the end of January, and seems to be transforming into a Knit and Natter group too! I think there were 6 of us knitting or crocheting and enjoying this
a-maze-ing cake!
This is my project: it is actually changing colour but it's a very subtle change
Hope you had a good January and wish you all the very best for February!
