Too soon for Christmas?

No?

That's good!

Because I have some Christmas coasters to show you!

Inspiration for these coasters found here.

My friend and I worked on these foundation pieced coasters together! (I couldn't find templates for them, so I drafted my own patterns.) Don't you think they would cheer up any coffee table at Christmas-time!

I'm getting my Christmas class samples ready for that moment when we realise that Christmas isn't that far away after all, and creative panic sets in!!

And if you need to stock up on supplies, don't forget about my lush Essex yarn dyed linen for sale in my Etsy shop, now available in half metre cuts.

Pop on over and grab yourself a bargain!

Happy Christmas weekend!

Out with the Girls!

Last night was a fun night in with some loonies  girlfriends.  We giggled, played games and laughed lots!  Medicine for the soul!

One of the games - making newspaper hats - my team won!! Sarah's modelling the winning hat!

We did Secret Santa.  I made these coasters .... and partnered them with the obligatory Christmas Chocolate orange (no, it's not Terry's)!

They went down very well!

And Santa (aka Heather) got me these!

There were 2 birthday girls to celebrate too!

For Sarah I made a basket to pop lots of goodies in (unfortunately 1 item is yet to arrive, hoping to have it soon Sarah!)



And for Ruth, I made this picture.  The sense of humour in it is right up Ruth's street!

I can totally relate!!

A great night was had by all!  Thank you ladies! Can't wait for the next one!
