Well "Isn't Christmas Jolly" by Mary Engelbreit...this is the fabric I have used in this little table runner...black Christmas fabric, 'whodathoughtit'...LOL.......The thread that I used was a variegated red which goes into such a deep red it is nearly black......but I was very happy with my finished product, so very bright and happy.......The stitchery is "A Christmas Wish" by Cinderberry Stitches. How good it that another finish......whoopie......Have a great day...

A perfect day...




Club Quilt today and we did have a lovely day...delicious morning and afternoon teas, nice lunch but most of all the best company and the opportunity to stitch what more could one ask for....I worked on my quilt for number three son and girlfriend, more on that one later, but this project I started on yesterday and it is just about finished, hopefully I will get that completed tonight. I do hope you all had a great day.....

just a little purchase from a new online store.....





Sarah from Sarah's Prim Treasures has opened an online store...... Patchwork Plus......
and I have made a little purchase ........Moda Twiggy Jelly Roll...my son Josh and his girlfriend Christina (Teen) have purchased a new lounge...chocolate in colour...I remember DH and I the first lounge we purchased was also chocolate, so Josh asked his Mummy to make a quilt how could I say no.....I think these colours should go very nicely with his new lounge...now all you lovely ladies please just take a minute and pop over and check out Sarah's new online store, happy shopping......the little button on the first photo was attached to the packaging of the Jelly Roll, how cute is that.....enjoy your day and thanks so much for popping by......
