....... to get ready for Christmas!! Or, if I'm telling the truth - I am finishing the things that didn't get done last month! I finished the blanket stitching on the angel wallhanging, and put it up on the design wall with some ideas for how to finish it
Happy with the look, I added the two inner borders .......
....... then the side borders
......... and the top and bottom borders
Then I pencilled the word 'angel' on the white border, which I will embroider
I also plan to make things with these fabrics, rather than put them away until next Christmas!
Sometimes, you have to make sacrifices for friends, and so it was yesterday when I had to buy these ......
....... just for Thimbleanna, who loves all things sheepie! And an even bigger sacrifice had to be made, when obviously I had to unwrap one for the next photo, and having unwrapped it, of course I had to eat it ...... oh dear, all those extra calories!) (Malcolm ate the other one)
I've started knitting a sock with one of the yummy yarns I got last week - I have actually done more than this, but I forgot to take another photo!
