A finish / Swap / and a little more

Another Xmas finish


I finished off the above stitcheries by backing them in some Xmas fabric, adding a little ribbon and an Xmas bell then decided on a place for them to hang over the festive season.


and whilst I'm mentioning Xmas. 
 Glenn has been away for the last couple of days with work so what's a girl to do with 4 kids whilst he isn't here ......

let them get out one of the Xmas trees of course!
It is now a WIP as they (the kids) want purple and gold so this weekend we will be shopping for a few more decorations to complete their vision.

I have also been tyring to finish quilting a top that is on my "Accountability List"

This is the top.

I have started quilting it and was hoping that in the ditch would be all that was required but again I am finding that it is a little puffy so I am trying to venture outside my comfort zone and add more quilting to it.

I will keep you posted on how I go but what I can say at the moment is that it is a HUGE learning curve.
 
Also,

Is anyone else interested in the Rainbow Charm Square Swap?

Original Post is HERE if you are and / or want more information.

Feel free to spread the word on your Blog (and use the below image if you like) as I need some more interest before I can proceed any further.


Thanks for stopping by,
Sharon
