Wow can’t believe how quick the last few months have gone
and that it was September when I was last on here.
….went on honeymoon….
…got ready for Christmas….
…. and to be honest just life in general has just been a bit
crazy. I have also managed to break the
camera (both the camera and I got soaked by a wave on honeymoon – it didn’t
survive!) and laptop (currently in the computer hospital) which has not helped.
I have, however, been managing to do some crafty stuff. Those of you who follow me on instagram will
probably be bored of seeing the updates on the Christmas
Celebration Sampler by Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery. Fab wee pattern and I do love being involved in
a stitch along but the border is taking an age and has had to be put on hold
while the Christmas sewing takes place.
Stitching Christmas ornaments when I was supposed to be gift sewing (another Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery project – Cozy Gingerbread Snow Globe)
Despite promising not to do many crafty projects for Christmas I seem to have been very busy making gifts! I have a couple of posts lined up for after Christmas so I won’t share them just now. However, I have been making loads of lavender bags and tissue holders as gifts – an idea which I have stolen from Mrs King Sews!
I have also made some more bean bag chairs as a favour for a
colleague at work (they looked a lot better in real life - and were very comfy).
I know this seems very small but it is not something I would have even considered doing before. A little bit of interfacing to reinforce the seam where a wee hole had occurred and away I went.
It was a bit fiddly, and the OH was a bit amused that the
night before we go on honeymoon I decide to fix a dress, but I think it was
worth it (photo doesn't do it justice!).
That’s enough from me for one day I think!
Will be back soon x
