Secret Santa gift from me to Kerri

I got to make for beautiful Kerri in our FIS Secret Santa Swap! As soon as I seen this pattern, I knew I had to make it up for her (got to make one myself too!). I decided to make this one similar to the original. Here is the Retreat Seat (it was very easy to put together and easy to follow instructions):Great support while stitching, or taking away for a sewing day/gathering!

Handy pockets in the sides to put your bits and bobs in. Kerri even said it would be good for sitting on your lap while stitching. What a great idea! Didn't think of that!


It ties to the back of the chair:

And, I also made her a iPhone Pouch:

A magnet calendar (seemed to have made a few of these too!). I have one ready to put together for me too!

And, I made a Elicia wool scarf:

Glad you liked them all Kerri! It was a treat to make for you!

Ok, so that is the last of my December finishes! My total is 27! WOW!!


I would also like to wish you all a wonderful, happy, safe and of course CREATIVE New Year! Thanks for stopping by! See you next year :+)

x Sarah

Lovely Sarah - I think I would need to have the retreat seat on my lap...no doubt I'd put pins and needles in it, forget and then sit on them! You create such gorgeous items - I'm sure your swap partners love to get you! Happy New Year xoxo
