Cheeky Christmas Elves

My family give lotto packs to each other for Christmas instead of a gift, I made these into little clips to attach to the lotto packs, they loved them :)

Mini pegs glued to the back of plastic aida.

Hope everyone had a safe happy and merry Christmas.

Cheers!

Swaps

The first ATC I've made, sent to England for the September swap...it's unknown if she received it or not, after many messages from me and the swap organizer she wont give us a straight answer. She also said she posted the one to me..no show yet.

A happier swap..Lucinda received this one I made and I received hers (see previous post) This is also Lucinda's photo she took, I forgot to take one but I like this :-)

Sew Happy

This is my elusive sewing machine..it comes out of hiding about once a year, we are not usually on good terms
but today it decided to behave (or I had more confidence with it).

This is what I sewed..what is it?

A Q-snap cover! I used this tutorial, it was so easy to follow I made two of them.
Now to spend the rest of this cold rainy day stitching. :-)

QS Grumpy Red Fairy Progress

It's a rainy cold day so I may get to stitch more of this today. I've been busy on some smaller projects for swaps which i'll post when they are received. Oh yeah its also grand final day in the NRL....so heres hoping your team wins..Cheers!

Halloween Magnet Swap

Received a nice package in the mail yesterday from Lucinda for the Halloween magnet swap on face book. Will post a pic of the one I made for her when she receives it. :-)

Star Stuck

Both my children performed in Starstuck this year, the above picture is my daughter which appeared in several local papers. She was Juliet from Gnomeo and Juliet, her costume looked so good and was kindly put together and supplied by my mothers friend...as a small thankyou I stitched her a card with the breed of dog she owns, it looks alot like her dog I hope she likes it :)

Oriental Fans

This is my favorite finish so far...I adapted the chart a little. The photo doesn't do it justice with all its pretty colors its a finish that doesn't  fail to make me smile whenever I look at it.
