Bee Happy!

 You may remember this fabric from earlier this year.

 Then I gave you a little sneak peek.

Well, I made a little bee!

 To go with this baby quilt for the baby my nephew and
his wife were expecting. They weren't finding out whether they were having a boy or girl and told me they were
doing the nursery yellow and grey.

We now have a new Great Niece/Second Cousin,
Thea Alexandra.

I have to admit, I was really out of my comfort zone
working with these fabrics. All a bit too modern for me!
But I'm pleased with how it turned out.

OPAM For July

This month I have three projects for OPAM.

 My Teapot Hoop.

 Washing Day mini quilt.

 Reindeer ornament.

Thanks to Peg and Kris for 

once again keeping us inspired.

Clayton's Christmas - What I sent!

 I sent my Clayton's Christmas gift to Helen.

This is the ornament I made for her.

Keeping with a gold and white theme, I sent Helen a 

gold and white Christmas fat quarter. 

I added some Christmas tree and star buttons

and some yummy Lindt chocolate.

Thanks again to the No Fuss Swappers 

girls for this great swap.

 

A Clayton's Christmas!

 

Today was opening day for our No Fuss Swappers Clayton's Christmas Swap. We had to send four items: 

a Christmas decoration, Christmas fat quarter, 

Christmas button/s and a small treat.

 De from Re-DE-Zines sent me my gift.

 Look at the beautiful decoration she made me.

 De was very clever and made my button 

after stitching a little Christmas hat.

Isn't this the cutest fabric! I haven't seen this one before.

 My small treat is a Toblerone. Yum!

Thank you for my lovely gifts, De.

Thank you also to Sandi, Teresa, Helen and Nor 

for organising this fun swap.

I'll show you what I sent to Helen in another post.

Friday Night Sew-In

Last night I worked on the snowman of my shabby Christmas Bunting from Jenny's Stitchery Club. 

This is a bit of a pick up put down project.

Thanks to Wendy for hosting us for FNSI. 

You can see what the others got up to here.
