This month, I made another zipper pouch using the YouTube tutorial by the Missouri Star Quilt Company.

This is the front side.

And this is the back.

I just love this snowman print. I wish I could remember the name of the fabric. It sparkles with glitter.



It's hard to believe Christmas is a little less than 4 months away. 

Wishing you all very productive workshop time in September.

This month 'SnoWie' came to play with me....

Thanks Narelle... xox

Welcome 2017 and a big welcome back to our workshop for another year of creativity, friendship and a head start on gifting and decorating for Christmas 2017.


Already January has been a busy month ... we welcomed a new grandson to our family ... first child for our daughter and hubby ... meet Parker.


My sewing priority has been working on a quilt for him ... seen here on my blog ... and of course back to work but once routine is established (is that at all possible?) there will be Christmas sewing and knitting and crochet. Always need more dishcloths, washcloths etc.

Same rules for the workshop in 2017:

#  Make an item to decorate or be gifted  OR  make progress on a long term Christmas project

#  Post with a pic (unless it's a secret) on our blog each month from the 25th

#  Don't stress if you miss a month ... I'm sure that will happen to me too

#  If using labels at the bottom of your post, please use the month/year provided and your name or blog name

#  As you make a post each month, I will be adding a letter to your link on the right sidebar as an added insentive to keep in touch
