My New Toys

Thought I'd share with you some of my lovely crafty christmas gifts :)

Ribbon Storage unit from CraftMates
The individual slots can be removed to allow for wider ribbons


Lovely selection of quilting & craft books


Accuquilt Go! cutter... an upgrade to my Go! Baby
Two new Go! cutter dies, double wedding ring & dresden plate
Two new mats for the cutter, both for use with the new dies
Accuquilt toast rack.... well it looks like a toast rack but it's to store all of my dies in :)


Hexagon Garden quilt kit from The Quilt Room, Dorking

Hopefully throughout 2012 you'll see some of the above in use.

Happy stitching ;)

Cross Stitch & Christmas Cake

Today I finished up three WIP's.

The first is a Lizzie*Kate cross stitch that I started last year & is now ready to be finished off into something nice.... just not sure what yet!


The second is my christmas cake. It's not perfect but it contains all that a christmas cake should & is topped with marzipan & icing :)


The third is another christmas cake, almost identical to the first but this one is for my mum. Hope you like it mum :)


Happy christmas :)

Bloggers BOM Block #3

I finished block three this week. I have to be honest I wasn't as keen on this block as the first two, mainly I think because quite a few of the fabrics in the Central Park range are directional & that included two that I wanted to use in this block. Anyway, I got over it & here's my finished block.



There is no block this month because obviously it's christmas day so we have to wait until January 25th for the next. Looking forward to it.

Happy stitching :)
