I couldn’t really resist another photobooth Christmas wishes selfie. It has been a little funny looking back over my Christmas posts and seeing myself take a ‘break’ from the blog and the internet. That’s not really required this year as I have barely been here at all! So very typical of me to go flat [...]

It is no secret that I LOVE Christmas and when Sarah asked me to whip up a crafty Christmassy project for the shop, how could I refuse? I had lots of fun making these Christmas sacks. A half meter of linen, some fabric, some perle, some gorgeous ribbon and voila enter the Christmas sack. Sarah [...]

The countdown has begun and I am quite excited…possibly even more than the kids. I bought this advent calendar kit from Kristen Doran, it says ‘Christmas’ without being too much and I’m quite taken with it. Have you started your Christmas sewing? I’m sure there are lots of festive posts popping up over at Koo’s.

Last year, Mel sent me some beautiful Christmas prints that she bought whilst travelling in Germany. These prints, teemed with a cheater panel from the Cookster and some red scraps have created some simple cards. I love Christmas and will more than likely pop the tree up this week…early I know but it really is [...]
