Christmas gifts

I was well and truly spoiled by stitching friends and received some wonderful gifts, special thanks to Karen, Karan, Kathy, Clare, Sally, Judy, Steph and Cindy.

I am the proud owner of a glass bead bracelet from Karen. DH thought these were sweets and could be eaten - silly man!

Karen also stitched me this super quaker ornament

Little things i stitched and sent ...
Lizzie Kate 'Friendship Grows' for Steph

From the Gift of Stitching online mag for Kathy

Elizabeth Designs - Special Stitcher for Karen


What plans have you made for stitching in 2009 then?? I've signed up for the Beatrix Potter Quaker SAL that starts Jan 1st. Fabric and threads are sorted so i'm all ready to begin.

I still need to finish off the Papillon How does your garden grow 2008 SAL, i'm only up to Part 9 so intend to get that finished as well as The Peacock Chair by The Cats Whiskers before i start anything else. Also there are lots of birthdays at the stitching club in January and i had intended to stitch them something this year instead of buying a present. The first birthday is Jan 1st so i guess i better get my 'smokin needle' out and start something hadn't i LOL

    Wow that is excellent. I love the colours of the fabbies you have and the satin threads look lovely.
    I have my own SAL this year and have reorganised my intentions for 2009. At the mo I am on top but plenty of time for all the balls to drop lol.
    I looked at the BP SAL but worried about how much you are meant to do a month. Am looking forward to following your progress.

    How lucky!! Still getting Christmas presents. But you all have an extra day that we don't. Boxing Day. Saw an English friend of mine that I haven't seen in a few years this afternoon. Was wonderful to hear "real" English spoken!!!

    Wow you received a lot of beautiful gifts from your friends and stitched up some wonderful ones as well.

    Sounds like you're ready to start off your New Year's with a great project and know what you need to wrap up.
