Catching Up Some More....

Another thing I made last year 
(I will add them to this years OPAM though)

this little wallhanging which was sent to Christine is an FHFS Christmas swap


My daughter had these 'hand' printed plates made for us .... they are so fun and made of proper stuff so can be used.... love them


Another 'hand' made gift was this special Christmas dishtowel....


... awesome....

... and my Christmas postcard arrived from Eglia in Brazil....
(done in the Brazilian flag colours) and really clever and pretty...


I also scored some new fabrics at Christmas... 
a set of foxy fat quarters.... (not sure at this stage what I will make with these)


.. and a set of English themed fat quarters (I am going to make a bag with these ones I think) 


Righto, Gotto Go... I'm still finding stuff that I put away to make space for visitors!!!
