FNSI X 2 ……

Friday and Saturday nights I joined Wendy and 43 others to sit and relax and sew….
First I finished this lovely “Prairie Point Star” Ornament.



You can find the tutorial at Super Mom No Cape.. 

Then made this skinny christmas wall hanging because I found the cute wee “Hanger” somewhere in my cupboard..



the pattern is in the “”Christmas Edition”” of Country Threads.


Next I went through my Christmas fabrics to make these wee quilts for Premmie Babies born over Christmas.



You can read about it HERE..




Then I wrapped these




                                     for

                               and



ready for the Post……




Now I will go to visit others who stitched along with us at Wendy's

Things have been Crazy

for Hubby and I lately…. An overnight trip to the Big Smoke turned into a 8 days with Hubby having a stay in hospital. Our car needing repairs and my “NEW” power assisted bike being put in to be fixed.

All's good now , Hubby, car and bike fixed  ……….





There were some bonus's while being in Perth.  I was able to spend time in DDs Craft Room with her. Needed some more clothes, sew we went shopping together and I enjoyed playing board games with the grandies....

Lacy got a new house and had fun playing in the pool with the kids….








While we were away I had a BD sew I came home to some lovely mail.

Love my gifts from my blogging friend Sunny 



and my friend Pat.



Also my gorgeous Christmas fabrics from Keryn had arrived.




It’s always nice to be home and spend time to stitch in the Cave….. Have completed my Swaps ….YES !!!!!

Happy Stitching
