Sneak peek!

 I've been quite busy making Christmas presents.  I've knitted and crocheted, made jam and chutney, and done quite a lot of sewing.   Here's a few of my creations.






I've made a lot of bags, using jelly roll strips from my stash.  One friend has quite a photogenic dog!  I made the wreaths to decorate plain brown paper carriers but a few friends have already removed them from the bags and hung them on the walls.  Which is all very well but it means that I have now given them a really boring paper carrier bag.  Hope they like the contents.

    1. When I was sewing the poinsettias I hoped they wouldn't just end up in the bin. But I didn't expect them to be redeployed so quickly!

  4. The mini wreaths are very sweet. They'd be lovely in plain brown wrapping or bags.

    1. They are! But the brown paper bags don't look very good without them!
