gifts of Christmas past

 Before we say a fond farewell to Christmas I thought I would show you a couple of gifts I got


 Firstly

This bag  was actually designed for me by a really talented designer

  It made of cotton and don't think the picture does justice to her work . It's beautifully lined. Something I vow to try this year.

My second gift is 

This is a yarn.box from the love of yarn . You can find her on face book

In the box I got 200g merino silk sparkle dk some chocolate a tree decoration a snowman hook and snow man stitch marker and a button . I love this and am actually making my self something that I hope to share with you soon

I will be buying more of these   why is mother's day so far away lol

Did any of you get anything good ?

deck the halls

Ok so I am.early  but who  hasn't noticed that Xmas is upon us ?

I had big plan for all my makes but between presents decorations have been lacking. I confess I put  decorations up for the whole of December  and that means in just over four weeks I can start putting up my treasures


So I looked  throughout things I 've already I made .

There was actually more than I thought  but didn't stop me adding to the collection 

This poka dot stocking  is from ravelry is was a suggestion for a face book cal but it was rejected so I made it myself . It was  quick and easy  and fun too . The pattern can be found on ravelry  if you fancy hanging one yourself 

Well I had best go  as being told to take it down lol
