I'll be honest, my home isn't going to look like it's been designed by Kirsty Allsopp but I have been very busy of late and I thought I'd share with you what I've been up to......
I had no idea what I could give my best friends children, until I saw the Moda Joy range by Kate Spain.........
I am really pleased with them, they were so easy to do and it gave me an excuse to use my Slice cutting machine to cut out their names (I love playing with my Slice!).
These beauties will be packaged up and posted to Olivia and Harry this week, it's very satisfying to give a handmade gift, I hope they like them too.
I loved the bright Christmassy colours so much that used my remaining fabric to make up a table runner for my kitchen table. I sewed several 11/2 inch strips together, then used my 30 degree triangle template to cut out contemporary Christmas trees. Add some sashing and a bright binding et voila......
There's still time to whip up smaller projects like these in time for Christmas, if the brighter colours in Joy don't appeal to you why not try Sentiments by 3 Sisters instead for a more traditional Christmas feel?
My current project, or should I say obsession is with fabric Gingerbread Men.....watch this space and all will be revealed very soon!
