As we're heading on holidays in a day or two, I've started the pack up of all things Christmasy. It's over for another year. I thought I would take some photos to share before I put everything away.
 |
| This is the quilt I won in the Quilt Give Away by Sandra Kaye. It is just beautiful. Lovely and Christmasy but in very different colours to what I normally use. |
 |
| Tis the Season Quilt took pride of place in our lounge room this year. |
 |
| Joe Jingles and Faerie Noelle. Both Designs by Country Keepsakes - always beautiful to make. Joe looks a little sad in this photo, but I'm sure he was happy throughout Christmas - probably knows he's about to be packed away for another year! |
 |
| This is a little quilt I made in 2010 with our Sewing Group - it was lots of fun to make and each block uses a different applique technique. |
 |
| This is the beautiful wall hanging I received from Denice in the SSCS swap. Just gorgeous - it's staying up all year. Dresden Plate is one of my favourite quilting designs. There was also a gorgeous bird - I'll do a separate posts on Denice's package. A beautiful surprise for Christmas morning. |
 |
| My Santas. All designed by Always Stitching. Once again, lovely designs to work with. |
 |
| This was a wall hanging quilt I appliqued and quilted by hand when our children were very small. Took me quite a few months to complete, but I still enjoy putting it up each year. Always reminds me of the years when I thought I'd never get to sew again! |
 |
| Celebrate the Season was a BOM designed by Chook Shed Company some years ago now. Still love it. |
 |
| Just a few of our Santas. All the others are packed away now, but these were sitting and waiting while I photographed the quilts. |
 |
| Anni Downes - 12 Days of Christmas. This was a fun project to do and just loved putting it together. |
 |
| Another Chook Shed pattern. I made this as a gift for my children's teachers - but there's were machine quilted. I hand quilted mine with lots and lots of hearts.
Well that is Christmas for 2011. We're well on the way to having it disappear completely - until 2012. Hope everyone had a good one.
Cheers
