It's Thursday already...

I really don't know where the time has gone this week! Well, no, technically that's not true...I have been busy busy with kidstuff this week, and haven't managed to do much scrapping in the last couple of days. In between drop-offs and pick-ups (and sports carnivals and tennis and tramp practice and play dates etc etc), I have done a little bit of stitching, and here are the results....


A very cute little naive Christmas tree, complete with bluebird sitting on the top (he's a little hard to see in the photo...sorry about that), and......



the plum puddings!!!!!
I adore this quilt block, and even though I don't actually like plum pudding to eat, nothing says "Christmas" to me much more than plum puddings (except maybe Christmas trees....oh, and presents...and even Santa ...ok, whatever!) The completion of these two blocks presents a little problem for me now....I don't have any more prepared blocks to stitch! So I may have to stay up late choosing fabrics for the next block and getting it all ready...one of my favourite bits!
The cards I made for the shop have been selling really well , so I have some more cardmaking to do, and the postie brought me some lovely new goodies to play with too, so I really don't know where to start! Ah, the problems of too many all-consuming hobbies :)
Hope your hobbies are keeping you happy too...have a great Friday xxx

Not fair, seeing all these great quilts makes me want to get out my stash and start something, however I definately dont have time for that, maybe in the holidays. Love the plum pudding block it's my fav so far, can't wait to see what's next
