As the 25th rolls round once more it can't be ignored anymore ...
there's only one month till Christmas.
After all my early preparation throughout the year I still feel like I've almost run out of time with projects still to finish. However I do have a couple of small gift items to share.
Four scissor fobs have been safely tucked away so I just had to finish the last 2 on the right and 1 on the bottom.
These little fabric baskets just need red buttons sewn at the top of each corner but did I have the buttons purchased ready? Don't be silly .... that would mean I'm organised. One for mum, DD, DIL and myself.
Oh, you have the camera out. Is this my good side?
So the time has arrived for all the lovely Elves to share what you have been creating ready for the big event. This will be our last official month for 1 Xmas Item and once I've checked and double checked my list I'll be doing a draw for a little giveaway to celebrate a great year of decoration and gift making. I would really appreciate it if you could either leave a comment here or email me once you have posted.
If you're like me and still have a few more things to finish off, maybe we can have an extra "Show and Tell" on the 15th December to wrap things up. Hope you are feeling a little less stressed about having handmade goodies ready ... Merry Christmas and thank you for sewing along with us.
Gorgeous finishes Narelle,well done.xx
ReplyDeleteLovely finishes. I made a lot more but I can not show it till after Xmas because they will read my blog.

Great little gift ideas there, Narelle. Mine is an "almost finish" which I have posted about today, and hope to finish stitching tomorrow (or maybe the next day???.) Look forward to a finale on 15th.
ReplyDeleteGosh your 'done' fobs are lovely Narelle, and your 'almost done' baskets are very festive, the buttons you ahem get are sure to look wonderful ;) Just got my post up, gift this time :0
