Friday FiNiShEs

I actually manged to accomplish some Xmas stuff... and some craft stuff today.
Yep... I think it classifies as a GooD DaY!
* Firstly the deco's were pulled down from the loft.... ready to go around the house.


*Then...  I finished off Teresa's block ( my December partner) for Quilting Block Swap Australia. Teresa is all the way in Portugal... that's a  L O N G  way from here! and it is her FiRsT swap with us. Hope she likes my work.

Teresa has to be the 1st to see the whole block
*Next... I posted off the "Christmas Cheers" to CHOOK who was day 3's WiNnEr... Congrats to her.
Keep an eye out for SaNtA's HeLpEr who will deliver your gift!

*Finally... I put together my daughters (a gift) table runner. I stitched on the red border then the green border, then sandwiched it, pinned it, quilted it and stitched on the binding. Now all that's left is to hand stitch the binding in place.... and of course attach a label! Thought I'd forgotten didn't you...
..... well I nearly did!!!!    oops !











See you tomorrow for DaY 4... "Four Calling Birds"...

Are they all boxes of Christmas decorations? Hehe - seems like a lot!

Love the colours in Teresa's block and so glad you talked about a label for your quilt - I've made one or two baby quilts and have never put a label on but I'm busy working on a bigger project and I will add one to that :0)
