Sorting out 2014

I thankfully got into the sewing cave on Sunday and got my wool pouch complete apart from the binding for which I am trying to locate more fabric.

I also completed some more time in the sewing cave on Monday and got stitching marked for my 1 xmas item a month, 2 more blocks for flower garden applique quilt, 3 blocks marked and ready for "Welcome to the North Pole".  Cut the pieces for friends bag in red home book.  A Xmas present, boy am I on to it already ( guess it wont last though)


You will notice I have joined Mini Swaps from Gone Stitchin , go over and look to see if your interested.  I have been meaning to make a few small items to use up scraps so lets see what happens...

Here is the lovely Paris, grown and mischievous....

1 Xmas item a month

A new year and I have decided to sign up and  try ( I did say try) to get my projects reduced.  Life is moving too fast for me....so therefore I have joined.....

the 1 xmas item a month to ensure I am focused and do try to post each month with a project...

The plan is,  North Pole Quilt and perhaps a stitchery quilt also, small blocks that can be taken anywhere... but as females are allowed to change their minds frequently it may be those small xmas projects not done yet....see the link .

If you want to join in go visit Narelle's site pins and whiskers .  Thanks Narelle for organising this.


My pile already of what I plan to sort this year!

Happy Stitching until next time
