Finally something to show

I am showing a January project that I have just done and another X stitch I am nearly done with. Still have to get them into a finished project..
Pattern is SONGS OF CHRISTMAS, by Designs for the Needle, Inc.

I started a little stitching

I have had so much on this month with a new granddaughter born this week and my grandsons 5th birthday and both getting a quilt made for them. L also crocheted a baby shawl and did some baby knitting. Enough of that now. I did get started on a little Carol singer though.

Not sure what I will finish it off as. That is always my hardest decision...

Anyway, here it is

No actual stitching but other finishes

I got stuck into finishing my knitting projects.... They were knitted last month but not finished til now....
I had to sew up 3 beanies. Sew in the ends on a feathers scarf and 9 dishcloths...
It kept me busy but they are now a finish....

3 kids beanies for the Xmas shoe boxes at the church

Another 9 lovely cotton dishcloths.. These are being added to my Xmas box

Blocking my dishcloths in my husbands great home made block.

So much for this footy GRAND FINAL WEEKEND. I'm loving finishing off some projects..

My tree is stitched

I have done my little tree. For me it is small. About 2" square. I love it though.
Now I just need to make it into something. Maybe a needle case.. I have a pattern in mind...

My Friday night

I was very lucky on Friday night to be staying with a blogging friend.
One who won't be photographed and can't be named.... Haha.
More about her on my next post though..... Aaaaggggghhh the suspense......
We did spend some time sewing and stitching together though.
After lunch at a lovely cafe, a tour of the area, visiting 3 patchwork shops, spending some money and then back for a beautiful meal and a lovely evening, here is the sewing photo.

I am doing a little stitchery that was started a while ago..
I need a gift for Xmas so I thought I should get it out and do some more on it...
I am still thinking about what to make it in to.. I do have an idea though but it will need to be kept a secret for a while....
