  • I have finished the patchwork quilt for the baby, I forgot to take a picture to show you all and I have wrapped it so that DD couldn't see it. I will that a photo when she opens it. I am now in the process of making a stockin. So far I have cut outthe stockin itself and have drawn out the santa I want to design on it. Running out of time fast.

    Wow that sounds impressive ROTE, and what a gorgeous gift. Will love to see a picture when you have one.

    I found a pattern to sew gingerbread men the other day, really fancy sewing a lot of them then threading them together to make a garland. Only knowing my luck their heads would be too heavy and they'd all hang upside down!

  • This thread has really given me the bug for sewing again! I really want to make stockings for people next year and see what else I can make throughout the year, will really save me a bit of cash really. Plus my OH's cousin is expecting so I want to make something for the baby.

  • Can't wait to see a pic of the quilt ROTE, I have a bit of a fetish for them! Stockings not in that shop any more Dinah :( I have been making little tree hangers like these for my friends this year, only they look a bit more 'homemade' than this!!

    Ooohhhhh, and on the train back from London the woman in front of me started knitting, I was watching her reflection in the window, and she'd almost completed a hat by the time we got to Durham! I reeeaaallly want to learn to knit!
