FNSI

I'm surprised i got anything done. The day started well. I finished making 6 burp cloths.

Then i cut out a project to start working on after i finished working on a secret project

But before i finished the last leaf on this i spent an hour or so on the phone last night to my internet provider trying to get the internet back up & running. Talk about useless. 2nd time in 2 days. No help at all so i think i'll be seeking a new provider. Oh the internet did finally start working again but it wasn't due to the guy i was talking to. Finally at nearly bed time i could make a start on the project i'd cut out earlier.

I guess i did get a fair bit done but not as much as i would have liked.

Thanks Wendy for running FNSI again. Pop over here to see the blogs of others who participated

Mittens

I bought 2 mitten patterns at the same time & have now finished the mittens from the 2nd pattern. They are so cute.

I had fun making these felt mittens too.

Santa was saved.....

........My thanks to everyone for suggestions on how to save Santa when my thread ran it's dye. I decided to stick Santa into a soaker & see what would come of it & it worked. Last night i turned Santa & his friends into these ornies.

I lightly stuffed the ornies to give them a puffy look. As you can see Santa is now stain free.

Love making these cute felt ornies.

Friday Night With Friends.

Last night i joined in Friday Night With Friends hosted by the lovely Cheryll.

I started this little Christmas decoration stitchery Thursday night & finished it last night & discovered this morning the threads dye had run. Grrr. Looks like i'll be re-stitching this one.

I almost finished this one before bedtime. Just hope it doesn't run when i wash my tracing pen out. Pop on over to Cheryll's & see who else joined in last night what they worked on.

1 Xmas Item & A Finish

I started this hanging many months ago & put it together as a top & now it's finally done. So not only is it my Xmas item for this month it's also a finish. :)

 

 Elf Wishes by Gail Pan. My 2nd finish was a UFO from a few years ago.

Dawn generously shared her pattern Frosty Flakes a few years ago & although the top was finished then it ended up being a UFO.

Tablerunner Swap, Let's Stitch Together

Yesterday i was browsing Melody's blog when i saw a gorgeous runner. When i read what Melody had wrote i got to wondering if the runner was for me as Melody mentioned the recipient liking vintage china & i certainly do. Guess what? The runner was for me & it arrived in today's mail. :) So excited.

As i was trying to take a photo i had a sticky beak come along to investigate to give her stamp of approval..

Love the runner. Thanks Melody for the runner, cookbook & chocolate.
