Hello,Back in July of this year I got a lovely book from the library and made the table mat above. I call it my "Christmas in July." It was supposed to be in red and white colours with the trees appliqued on top. On looking through my scraps I only had a very small amount of red, so I decided to make it in blues and greens to match the room. I had some of the material for a very long time because I could remember making dolls clothes with some of the green.
I was at the newsagent the other week, browsing at the craft mags and I kept coming back to this magazine. It was very familiar. It was the book that I made the "Christmas in July" table mat from. So of course it had to come home with me. It is a David& Charles publication. This company prints some lovely books, so lets hope some more are printed in magazine format.
These three lovely patterns arrived this week from Ballarat Patchwork.A pattern for a baby bib, a cot quilt and a oven mitt and pot holder. A great prize to win in a giveaway. Thanks Pam and Emma. These are greatly appreciated.
Some of my Pay It Forward gifts have arrived at their new homes. Valerie's blog is as followshttp://www.ausrose.blogspot.com/ It was delivered on a Sunday which is a great surprise. Australia Post is doing a great job.
As this will be my last post until after Christmas I wish everyone Peace Happiness and Lots of Love for the Festive Season.
Merry Christmas.
