Way back Cheryl from Willowberry Designs hosted a lovely little French Items swap and shared with us a bunch of sweet little patterns
I did send out my swap items but I had quite a few sitting in my UFO box
.... now they are done ....
... there is a lavender bag, needlebook, scissor holder and thimble holder.... all rather cute and will be in the gifties box....
Narelle hosts One Christmas Item a Month.... I haven't done mine so it is a non item..... but I have made a head start on a couple of pretty Christmassy things.....
... these are some "one day they will be decorations" ....
... and these are some rather fun "one day they will be a runner or 3 different mats"
I fussy cut some lovely winter scenes and included them as the 6" block inside a Sawtooth block
I did one of these as a swap block earlier in the year... and liked it so decided I wanted some!
Righto, Gotto Go.... deadline for the Stitchalong sewing bag is looming..... that lining and template base is a mighty challenge for me...

Oh Fiona, that is a gorgeous little set. I don't think I could part with it! Good luck with the lining, it's tricky, but worth it in the end.
