Pressie

Look what i got in the post today, Vikki from Sew Useful Designs sent this to me, So me don't you think? Purple fabric with cats? Purrfect! the most adorable card and the scissors, delightful!

Bears, Toys, Swaps

Internet Swaps are so much fun! this is what i got from one of my partners, Sue Van, a lovely fat 1/4, two lace doileys, and a pocket thread catcher with needles and scissor holder, this along with velcro dots to hold it onto whatever surface i want. Thanks It is just too cute!
These two patterns i bought from a charity shop in England comes complete (i hope!) with pre cut pattern pieces. I am going to make them and place them also under the K.Mart Wishing Tree.
Bears are almost done, Just need to go and get some safety eyes and noses before finishing the seams.

Honey Bears

Funky Friends Factory has a wonderful bear pattern that you can download free when you sign up for their newsletter, I think it is just delightful, I am going to make 5 of them, 3 in this light yellow fleecy and 2 in the dark brown, all will go under the K.Mart Wishing Tree this year.

Mini Break

Leigh and Wiss, My daughters two cats. They are just a couple of lovely very large adorable cats.
On the way up to Hill End we saw this! How cute is it!
Wild Goats at Bald Hill overlooking the township of Hill End.
My Son in Law on his brand new ride on mower. Their land is 4and a half acres. overlooking such fantastic views.
Another view, this is from their back veranda and the land slopes down slightly and ends at the trees.
I had such a fabulous time and it is lovely to see that they are settling in wonderfully, already it feels like their home. They have been there for 3 months now.

Pincushion Chair

Felt covered tape measure. to be used either as a cushion for the chair or a foot stool.
The crochet cover on the back of the char doubles as a surprise needle holder.
Finished chair. All ready for the Christmas swap at our Christmas Party. Not worried that some of our members might see it because it will be wrapped up.
Off to Sydney for a couple of days, to visit my daughter and see their new house for the first time and to visit Hill End too.

K.Mart Wishing Tree
