Welcome

As the song from Gilmore Girls says “So welcome to my little corner of the world”. It’s all about me and my crafting – focusing around my love for stitching and sewing along with anything else that catches my eye. So welcome, grab a coffee and happy reading.

Christmas Presents

Hello and Happy Boxing Day as DS said to his Nanny this afternoon. I thought I'd quickly show you a couple of presents I made and also received from my wonderful stitchy/blogger friends Laura and Steph.

I was a very lucky girl to receive this fabulous parcel from Laura. It was filled with lovely Christmas decs and also chocs, stickers and Christmas confetti

I love the little crochetted stocking and the mittens are so sweet with lovely embroidery on them. The cat cushion is simular to one I had from the Christmas Travelling Box so it's nice to have a pair on my tree.


So I sent Laura a parcel too and in it was this lot...


I made Laura and her Hubby mini stockings with their initals on, filled with chocs - after all it is a major food group at Christmas, a Humbug decoration from Kincavel Krosses,  Snowflake feltie, a bag of ribbon, buttons etc, Christmas Socks. A necklace I got from the our local Victorian Fayre and a little glass pig from the Frankfurt Market.

I also made this little beaded candle decoration for Laura's Mum, I copied the design from one my Penpal Sarah-Jane sent me this week. I also made the stitched bird feltie to match the square ones Laura had from the travelling box.

I also sent Steph a filled stocking too with a bag of bits and bobs and a mini humbug decoration


I got this gorgeous Kokeshi doll from Steph, Isn't she cute! She's crochetted in two of my favourite colours too, with little seed beads in the flowers and in the hair.


I hope you all have had a wonderful Christmas day and are not suffering from the overindulgance of Christmas pud. A quick hello to my new followers too. One more and I have to have a giveaway as My 101/1001 target was 20 new followers and I'm almost there!!!!! If I'm not back before, have a very Happy New Year.
