Final OPAM For 2021!

  

Windy Days purse.

Windy Days chatelaine.

Lillian Elizabeth's Kitchen.

Two Grinch table runners.

And five Grinch cushions.

 

That's 10 finishes for December.

 I had a total of 64 finishes for 2021. 

Big thank you to Kris for keeping us inspired.

 

I have some more finishes but they will have to wait until 

they are gifted. Due to unexpected things, 

our Chit Chat Crafters stitching group weren't able to

meet as planned for our Christmas get together.

Zoom Stitching With Friends

  

I spent a lovely afternoon yesterday

 zoom stitching organised by Chooky Blue. 

There were girls from Australia, New Zealand, 

Germany, UK, USA and Canada. 

I finished the embroidery on my banner but have run out of my 

glue pen so put this away to work on my hexagons.

I worked on my Tilda hexagon quilt whilst chatting with everyone. 

The time just goes so fast.

Thank you Donna for a lovely afternoon. 

I'm looking forward to our next one.

Before I go, thought I'd share these photos from Christmas Day. 

I finally got a photo of the boys with their girls all together. 

Mitchell and Steph, Austin and Paris and Nelson and Jemma.

One with Nana.

We then tried the timer thingy on my phone and got one of all of us!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas Day. We certainly did.

Merry Christmas!

 

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas.

Lots of Love,

Christine and Noel, 

Mitchell and Steph, Austin and Paris, Nelson and Jemma

And Molly and Rex

Merry Grinchmas!

Austin's girlfriend, Paris, just loves The Grinch. 

I found this fabric after Christmas last year. 

I thought I would make her some cushions and a couple of table 

runners for their new home for this Christmas.

I gave them to Paris for her birthday which was a 

few days ago. That way she could have them out for longer.

 

Their dining table is a huge 2.4 metres long! 

I made the runner 80 inches long. 

The coffee table is 1.3m long. 

This runner is 50 inches long.

I only had one metre of the Grinch fabric and had no success finding more. 

Who would have thought they would buy such a big table! 

With a lot of calculating, I managed to get the most out of the 

fabric to make everything I wanted to. 

This small piece is the only scrap left over!

 

Friday Night Sew-In

  

Last night was the final FNSI for 2021! 

I didn't get to join in until quite late 

after spending soooo looooong 

on the phone sorting out Mum's internet. 

Rex curled up at my feet while I stitched.

I only managed to get this much stitched on 

the second banner for my bunting.

Huge thanks to Wendy for hosting us throughout 

the year and keeping us inspired.

A big thank you to Dawn from  

Kitty Rose Cottage for sponsoring FNSI.
