Happy December

Happy December everyone....i can hardly believe that it's almost christmas time again.....
.......the old maileg goose is back again and the cosy red and white irish chain quilt is on this bed....lots of red and white quilty things are being displayed around the house now...like the cutter quilt hearts and red and white patchwork stockings (patterns in my etsy shop link in sidebar)......
..........here is this week's quilt stack with the wooden horse.....
...........this year i planted the indoor hyacinth bulbs in plenty of time......
..
......new favourite decorative thing....candles in terracotta plant pots...so easy and so rustic.....
........another gift bag made with sweet liberty fabrics on my work table this week.......
.....with a little chocolate santa which was kindly gifted to me by the newsagent when i bought a magazine.......
.........a new finished quilt now....this is my daisy quilt pattern in red white and green for a very festive feel.....the decorative book stack is from my little chalet......
....the quilt was beautifully longarm quilted for me with curls and stars by talented debbie holland.......
.........such a simple easy pattern to make, and quick too if you use a rotary cutter and chain piece the rows.......i needed a few new christmas quilts in my collection and want to make a few more (for next year!).....
..........leaving you with a little festive jingle bell house surrounded by a green leafy wreath.....

 ......thank you for visiting me here to share a bit of festive spirit....and thank you for your sweet comments which i love to read.....wishing you a happy cosy december with plenty of crafty christmas inspirations....take care lovelies and keep well...........back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So many pretty and cosy things in your lovely home, Helen! Love your new quilt with the red, white and green. Your candles are especially festive in their pots - so, so pretty.

Oh such a pretty cozy house! I love those striped candles.. looked all over Amazon for them.. I like how the strips go straight around the candle rather than like a candy cane.. couldn't find them! Your gift bags are darling.. love making gift bags but usually not patchwork ones, which I do love. Your new quilt is gorgeous.. and I love the red and white one on the bed. I just can't get enough of all of your lovely makes! Marilyn
