Cross Stitch Finish & More Tula Pink

For the last couple of weeks I've been working on a cross stitch for a friends birthday.  It's been a relaxing way to spend an hour each evening while catching up on some TV.  After finishing the stitching I decided to make it into a mini wall hanging.  The birthday girl will soon be having a dedicated craft room & I thought it could be a perfect addition to the wall :)

I've also completed two new blocks in my WIP Tula Pink sampler quilt.  It's becoming increasingly more difficult to decide on the fabric for each block, but I really love how they're turning out.

Christmas Tree Wallhanging

WOW.... we've been major busy here over the last few weeks. Christmas is in full flow in our house & the twins are keeping us more than occupied with their wish lists that appear to grow day by day!

I have managed to finished a couple of projects & this is one of my favourites. It's a christmas tree wall hanging. It's new home will be on the dining room wall over the festive season. It was part of my college course I've been doing. Althought the course has been about curved seams our tutor thought it would be nice to throw in a festive project. Lots of the students embelished their trees with beads & sequins etc but I felt my fabrics looked lovely without any glitz or glam.

I like it so much I've already gathered together a selection of fabrics to make a different colour theamed one for the lounge :)




Happy Stitching :)
