As you can see, I have been rather busy. I have a rather long Christmas list and I attempt to hand make as many gifts as i can. That usually leaves me with wondering what to make. I think I have made everything for every body. However, I have come up with a few ideas for this year.
Lots of these are gifts, so I will not say who they are intended for. I have had a lot of fun designing these - choosing which fabrics are appropriate for each person.
This is a decoration for the house - a table topper. As Christmas and Hanukkah coincide this year, I thought it would be fun to have some Hanukkah inspired decorations.
A couple of twin quilts of the same pattern, in differing colorways from a collection of fabrics at the shop where I work.
This one is a cheater panel, but it is very appropriate for the person I am giving it to.
This is a scrap quilt that was inspired by a quilt I found online. I used my scrap stash very effectively - only buying the background fabrics and backing.
Here is a close up of the swirl quilting I did on it. I backed it with flannel to make it extra cozy.
I think this will be the last quilt I make for the home for a long while. We have plenty of quilts now and I am running out of room to store them. There are worse problems, I suppose.
I guess I will have to think harder on things to sew in the future.
Until next time,
One Little Birdie
