Christmas Finishes

OMG, I can't believe I have finished!
I joined Chookyblue's Stitch-A-Long to make this little Christmas quilt 'Tis the Season' and I beat the deadline...I'm pretty chuffed about that...not good with deadlines when it come to sewing things for me.
Unless it's a doll...my favourtive past time.

Sew and Tell

I made these friendly country dolls for the Beaudesert Quilters...they have asked if I would show them how to make a doll but I had to work within a few restriction...like "we don't want a head that look like thumb" "please, make it a dolly doll". After scratching my head, I decided Annabella would suit most of the ladies...I was right I now have 13 ladies going to make her.
 
A new Beatrice Bear
I have used gorgeous guipure lace for the hem of her dress...very pretty.
Wait there is more...
 I starting making these little wool bags at camp
so easy to make and very cute...
 as is this little origami bag I made using Lecien's Flower Sugar.
 Love this range.

Dream Angel

I had a lazy day yesterday making my Dream Angel, another wonderful doll by Annie Smith.
She has the cutest face and her little outfit is so sweet.
But her wings got a little burnt on landing so I had to make her a new pair. 
A lesson learnt...don't walk away from the microwave when making wings.
