With the first fully frosty weekend of the season comes a day of crafting inside and a wintry walk at dusk before hitting the books (or laptop really) to prepare for work next week. But not before blogging eh!
The quilt has been backed and is now almost complete. All it needs now is to actually be quilted - a long job for the Christmas holidays I think.
It's fairly minimalist but for a first try I'm pretty happy with it. It's about the right size for a child's bed rather than an adults as the batting is too short but it's pretty nice to wrap up in before the heating comes on of an evening, even before the quilting.
With one project nearly complete and Christmas only just around the corner the pressure is on with the Christmas crafting! Along side several gifts, which will appear here after the season so as not to spoil any surprises, I'm also cracking on with the cards and wrapping paper. I've made my own for a few years now and although it can be quite a task, I do love it. So, here's a sneak peak at some of the cards - 2 batches done already and another 2 or 3 to come to meet the demand.
Happy Christmas crafting all. S
