So, off to work we go..... lots to do and sew today.
Is this a mess or work in progress |
No, this is a mess |
Is this going to be a mess? |
Lots of ribbons and fabric waiting to be cut and tied. Believe me this is certainly a job to be done in a group with lots of laughter ....
And this is the crowning glory |
I think someone got a bit bored and decided that her wreath had more to do that just hang on the door...... anyone know a wedding she can go to.
But this was the final count down.......look good don't they
Someone is good at tying bows....thank you Glennys |
Other Christmas items being made were...
Coasters, table napkins, and Christmas tags
Tea Cosy almost finished |
and who can resist a Dove
And then we have a cute Owl "sleep over bag" being made for one lucky grand daughter. Pockets for all the things a girl need and room for PJ's and a favourite pillow inside.An elegant advent calendar panel to be finished before the end of the month
A couple of not quite finished Christmas cathedral window cushions made at a workshop with Helen Spence at a LQS. Looking forward to seeing these completed.
And a very healthy display of the assorted items that have been made today.
A big "Thank You" to the ladies who brought us the ideas and created the samples for us to see. A big success I think.
Well done ladies!!

I had a lovely day today. Can't believe how much ribbon those wreaths take, but I love mine!
ReplyDeleteI think we have had some really good "all days" this year. Now we have a lot to live up to to make next year as successful. Need to get the thinking caps on soon!!
Comments are now open so lets see some more ladies.
Loved the day and let's face it with out every one joining in we would not have so much fun or ideas, so thanks to all. Got a few ideas up my sleeve for next year, but we still have one all day this year and that one could be the best as there is food involved. Yeah!!!!
ReplyDeleteSee - it's easy!
ReplyDeleteWell done Anonymous, its nice to know that someone is reading our little blog!
DeleteIt was a great day and I personally would like to thank all the ladies for such great ideas. Even I finished my wreath!(although it might look better as a hat for Rosemary, She carries it so well!!) lolx
ReplyDeleteAs the daughter of a member of cock-up corner, I'm loving all the xmas bits and pieces, but wondering if I might get a tea cosy in my stocking?
ReplyDeleteBrilliant first day at Higham Piecemakers. I love the projects and the great company. Thanks to everyone for making me so welcome.

ReplyDeleteTo the daughter of a member of cock up corner you might not get a tea cosy in your stocking - and there`s not much chance of a hat either. Welcome to Sue - you were sitting rather close to cock up corner- were you trying to tell us something? Great day - keep them coming.
