Secrets and hides

 

Oh my goodness me, just a few weeks now until Christmas and although I have been really busy sewing I can’t show you what I have been stitching,as like every thing else at this time of the year – it’s a secret!

  What I can show you are the beautiful sunsets that glow over me as I sit hand stitching in the evenings. Aren’t the colours just amazing and I didn’t even have to edit them at all?

Then I can show you a bit of some of the fabric I’ve been using on one of my secret squirrel projects.  I sure hope my secret partner likes it.

Another secret or two(from DH that is) that I can show you is some of the ‘buys’ that just jumped out of the laptop at me.  Firstly there is a whole lot of Blackbird Designs patterns, followed by some more – some of which I’ve already stitched up. Aren’t those little stockings so sweet?  I have a few more of the stocking patterns on back order.  I’m starting to notice that all my buys are for cross stitch!!! How can that be?  I’m a quilter!  But that’s just reminded me – I need more 30ct linen.

Then – you can tell DH has been on many late shifts by the amount of on-line purchasing I’ve made, LOL. I remembered some thread sticks I saw at the Quilt and Craft Fair a couple of months back.  So I managed to track them down .

Now, as I said these are all secrets from DH – he’s not to know, OK? 

Goodness me, just rolling back over this is shocking. But what you do need to realise is that these weren’t all bought at once, I did pace myself over time. Now I just need another twelve hours in every day to get them and all my quilts done in my life time.

Happy stitching everyone
