November 2012
On the run up to Christmas, so almost all of the things that I am creating are either gifts or Christmas decorations. Although not everything is Christmas based.
I have created some fabric pumpkins to decorate our fireplace for the Halloween - they went really well with the Witch Quilted Postcard.

wo great gift ideas and they also use up little bits of fabric ( and I have loads of that in my box!!) are the keyrings and bookmarks. The other thing that uses small bits of fabric is a door stop based on the Patchwork dog (in the have a go section), be teaching that in the middle of the month, along with a Sausage Dog Draught Excluder!!! – again both are great for presents.
On left over fabric, I had some blue pieces spare from the Double wedding Ring quilt, were I had cut to many and I pieced them together to make a new cover for the chair in our bedroom.
Any spare time I have had has been used to make myself some new tops and to re-model some older (too big or out of fashion) items.
