Xmas in July for Bec

As promised, here are the Xmas Tree Ornie's I made for Bec. This little gal is a Rosalie Quinlan design dolly from the pattern A Bucket Full of Angels. I named her 'Joy':


I decided to put her in a little stitchery bag, this one is a Leanne's House pattern:

Here they are ready to be wrapped:

More Ornie Swap pics here

I am going great with Peg's challenge, don't think I will have the binding sewn down, but I decided from the start that my challenge will be to hand quilt it!! Here is a close up of my stitching. I know it is not too close, but every time I tried to go closer the pic became blurred!!


I have been chatting to Lisa via email for a little while now, she does not have a blog (YET, but I am encouraging her to lol) she sent me a pic of the lovely tidy bin she made:



She has done a great job don't you reckon??!! Well done Lisa xx

I will be back VERY soon, to show you MORE Xmas In July Swap pics from the online Group I am in.

Until then, take care,

Sarah xx
