No Phone, No Internet....What is a Girl To Do.....

Well....sew of course...

feeling the crunch of Christmas and the need to get gift making complete...not to mention the shopping I need to do.  But this weekend I spent a good deal of my time "negotiating" with AT&T....ugh!  The first repair date they gave me was next Friday!  Are you kidding! 

So I did a little shopping and then worked on some Christmas gifts...ho, ho, ho!

I picked up a few small cuts of Liberty at the shoppe this weekend.....ohhhhhhh.....I am in love!

Again, I used the designs from Scandinavian Stitches....this little pony was added to a tea towel....

Add a little Liberty to the saddle, cart and a ruffle....cute, cute...

Lots more to do...how is your gift sewing going?

Wordless Wednesday....

Tea Time....

Another sweet project from Scandinavian Stitches....

I am beginning to think these will be difficult to part with...the teapot fabric is vintage.  I found this as a feedsack pillow case in a great cheese/flea market shop in Plain City.  The other fabrics are from Sew To Speak :)

Molly helped with stitching the steam from the cup!

The buttons - front and back - are from my niece who is lucky enough to live near The French General in Burbank, Calif.  I love how the trim matches the tea cup!  Or in my case coffee cup....

Enjoy your Monday!

Scandinavian Stitching....

It's that time of year!  Following Halloween many of us begin thinking of the holidays and gift making....I found many fantastic projects in Scandinavian Stitches by Kajsa Wikman!  They are just my style of gift-giving projects...so sweet and not too complicated....

My crows sport some happy Japanese fabric....

Love this little fox with a bib....

So with the time change...I was able to accomplish a lot of the usual house "maintenance" this morning and still had time to start project #2....hopefully, more to come tomorrow!
