Tis the Season - Natalie Bird

I have sign up for a stitch-a-long. We are all making "Tis The Season"
I purchase some new cottons from Cottage Garden Threads called "Hug'n'Kisses to complete the stitcheries.... I decided on red fabric too as I LOVE red and white together....

Sewing.....

Yes I manage to make a name tag for my swap partner for " Sew it Together". (Thank you "A blessed Life for offering to send a calico tag). As you can see I made this one.
It had to be in three colours only... brown, yellow and orange.
I had to cover the name so my swap partner doesn't see it is for her!!!
At this stage it is a secret swap....
I was reading on a blog... that they are needing people to stitch blocks for the Quilters Guild of Queensland. They will be making these into "LOVE" quilts for the flood victims. So these are the two that they sent me to stitch... very cute.
Well I will be having a busy day today... my daughter's sweet "16th" birthday party....
I hope I stay awake!!!! It is a "GLOW" party.... everyone will be wearing white....
and will be glowing!!!
Anyway, happy quilting
Sandy
P.S. If you have Australian Homespun, look on page 7 in the Readers' Showcase.... they actually contacted me on my blog....
