Getting Ready for Christmas

I had a lovely time at work today as Lucy and I unpacked these gorgeous Christmas crafts.



There are all sorts of beautifully packaged patterns for cute things to make.



And many of them are available as kits in these lovely patterns and colours.



There's lots of other fun Christmas fabrics to choose from too.



I now have a few projects in mind for Christmas. Have you got anything planned?

Lazy but productive!

We had a nice lazy Saturday morning.

I made a chocolate cake with my helper.



She had the best job...



mmmm yummy!



Lucinda was as usual feeling crafty and had been asking to do an applique canvas.



She drew up a design and gathered her fabrics. I started the first stitch and off she went.



All finished...



And hanging on the wall!



I was fairly productive too. A cushion for Lucinda to give to her friend for her Birthday today.



The Birthday girl's favourite colour is blue!



And this afternoon I started to put together this which is a long overdue present for a union jack loving nephew!!



Tonight I'm quilting it and hopefully will have it all put together in the next couple of days. Love ticking things off the list!!

Guess who just worked out how to swing herself!
