Happy December dear readers......'tis the season for some bright and festive sewing..........here is the applique berry pot block being hand quilted.........
............and one of my favourite English paper pieced stars made into an ornament.....
...........lots of starry twinkle lights here too to add to the festive feel.......
............a few weeks ago my elder daughter and i went to a blogger event at inspirations......it was a gorgeous evening with so much to see and enjoy on every kind of christmas theme beautifully laid out and inspiring......i loved the pink nutcracker :).......
..............and it's where i got my reindeer rd sign too which i showed you recently.....more of this (and snowman avenue) when i put the signs up in our house!......
............here's a little deer inspired log cabin block to add to my work in progress quilt....
...........after a couple of weeks of dull, wet and dreary weather we were blessed at the weekend with a bright and frosty day......
............we walked by the sea in our little town......
................here's molly (glad of her naturally woolly coat as it was freezing despite the sunshine)...
..........also at the weekend we got out the decorations, put up the outside christmas lights and dressed the two trees....a small red and white in the sitting room and a bigger one with pastel colours in the lounge (as i do each year)......lots of help from mr p, my daughter and grand daughter made it all quite quick and easy :) ......we had some tea and mince pies after to celebrate the season....
...........and a final sewing project is this little drawstring bag made from the pattern in my etsy shop but with smaller squares..........such a nice way to hold a gift and then reuse it i think......
...........that's my busy festive stitchery week.....now i have begun a new english paper pieced red star quilt...hope to have some progress on it soon .......wishing you a wonderful week ahead with happy cosy crafty times.........thanks for dropping by to see me here and for your sweet comments dear blog friends......back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
