Christmas is coming!

Hopefully it's not too early for you, but I have been working on my Christmas Buntings and Decorations, which I have been wanting to post about for a while, but haven't as I didn't want to seem too early with it all! But it is such a creative time of year I need to get making. I just love making decorations, food and presents for people. Besides we have all had horrible colds lately and need something to cheer us up!

I made this one yesterday,



I decided to handsew the letters on, normally I machine them but I think this works quite well



I LOVE using Gingham, it has such a lovely, homely, cottagey feel to it!

and here's a collage of items I made last year which I will be doing again this year.



Doesn't it make you feel all festive?!

  1. Hi Janet

    I can't believe that I haven't got back to you before now to thank you for the wonderful bunting I bought from you. I am sorry, it has been such a busy time for me lately!

    It is beautiful, so well made and the perfect colour combination. We will enjoy using it year after year. Thank you so much. Donna xxx
