It's Christmas already - Part II

I had the pleasure of being partnered with Fiona in the Santa Sack Swap organised by the lovely Cheryll

We swapped a few emails and some information and I stalked her blog for a while ;-)
Fiona commented that she like useful things, so here is what I sent her


I made a nice sturdy functional santa sack, big enough to carry a few bottles of wine



A matching card holder and notebook cover







  a charm for a zipper pull or scissor fob


 cross stitch kit and owl charm

 my first pin cushion and needle case - made from the scraps one of my first block swaps


some red embroider threads, ribbon and ric rac

some Asian influenced fabric

An armchair caddy - with some needlework goodies - this was my first attempt at something like this and I was so pleased with my effort
I have since improved on my binding skills

some lovely tea bags were included in the first parcel.

I am glad Fiona liked what I sent.

Thank you for visiting my blog today - I hope you have a good day.

Remember, any day doing something you love makes it a good day ;-)




Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.
